Wausau and Madison will take part in a guaranteed income study.
As many as 20 families in Wausau will be paid $500 per month for a year during the study. Wausau Mayor Katie Rosenburg says her city and Madison have been selected to be part of the Mayors for Guaranteed Income study. The families will be required to track how they spend the money, where they spend it, and how far it goes. Rosenburg says she’s trying to figure out the “best fit” for her city.
