Another issue of interest to AFSCME that was not vetoed was language in the budget requiring the state DHFS to issue a "request for proposals" and contract out the delivery of pharmaceutical services for residents at all DHFS institutions, including Sand Ridge Secure Treatment Facility, the Wisconsin Resource Center, Winnebago Mental Health Institute, Mendota Mental Health Institute, and all three state Centers for the Developmentally Disabled.
