                                 AN ACT

 
  To authorize the State of Wisconsin to implement the demonstration 
                 project known as ``Wisconsin Works''.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. AUTHORITY TO IMPLEMENT WISCONSIN WORKS DEMONSTRATION 
              PROJECT.

    (a) In General.--Upon presentation by the State of Wisconsin of the 
document entitled ``Wisconsin Works'' (as signed into State law by the 
Governor of Wisconsin on April 26, 1996) to the appropriate Federal 
official with respect to any Federal entitlement program specified in 
such document--
            (1) such official is deemed to have waived compliance with 
        the requirements of Federal law with respect to such program to 
        the extent and for the period necessary to enable the State of 
        Wisconsin to carry out the demonstration project described in 
        the document; and
            (2) the costs of carrying out the demonstration project 
        which would not otherwise be included as expenditures under 
        such program shall be regarded as expenditures under such 
        program.
    (b) Limitation of Costs.--Subsection (a)(2) shall not apply to the 
extent that--
            (1) the sum of such costs and the expenditures of the State 
        of Wisconsin under all programs to which subsection (a) applies 
        during any testing period exceeds
            (2) the total amount that would be expended under such 
        programs during such testing period in the absence of the 
        demonstration project.
    (c) Testing Period.--For purposes of subsection (b), the testing 
periods are--
            (1) the 5-year period that begins with the date of the 
        commencement of the demonstration project, and
            (2) the period of the demonstration project.
    (d) Recapture of Excess.--If at the close of any testing period, 
the Secretary of Health and Human Services determines that the amount 
described in subsection (b)(1) exceeds the amount described in 
subsection (b)(2) for such period, such Secretary shall withhold an 
amount equal to such excess from amounts otherwise payable to the State 
of Wisconsin under section 403 of the Social Security Act (relating to 
the program of aid to families with dependent children) for the first 
fiscal year beginning after the close of such period. The preceding 
sentence shall not apply to the extent such Secretary is otherwise paid 
such excess by the State of Wisconsin.

SEC. 2. NO EFFECT ON CERTAIN OTHER WAIVERS GRANTED TO THE STATE OF 
              WISCONSIN.

    This Act shall not be construed to affect the terms or conditions 
of any waiver granted before the date of the enactment of this Act to 
the State of Wisconsin under section 1115 of the Social Security Act, 
including earned waiver savings and conditions. The current waivers are 
considered a precondition and can be subsumed as part of the Wisconsin 
Works demonstration.

SEC. 3. AUTHORITY TO PARTICIPATE UNDER SUBSEQUENT LEGISLATION.

    If, after the date of the enactment of this Act, any Federal law is 
enacted which modifies the terms of, or the amounts of expenditures 
permitted under, any program to which section 1 applies, the State of 
Wisconsin may elect to participate in such program as so modified.

            Passed the House of Representatives June 6, 1996.

            Attest:

                                                ROBIN H. CARLE,

                                                                 Clerk.

                              By Linda Nave,

                                                           Deputy Clerk
