In May 2010, Newcomer announced he would not seek reelection stating, "It has been an honor and privilege to represent the people of the 33rd State Assembly District in the Wisconsin State Legislature. The best part of my job has been the many wonderful people I've met throughout Waukesha County and Wisconsin."〔http://wispolitics.com/index.iml?Article=197896〕 In July 2011, Newcomer announced the formation of Newcomer Consulting Group, a business procurement, consulting and lobbying firm based in Madison, Wisconsin.〔http://thewheelerreport.com/releases/June11/0629/0629newcomer.pdf〕 Newcomer's Consulting Group represents largely Republican political groups in Wisconsin, such as The Wisconsin Retail Association and the Independent Business Association of Wisconsin.〔http://www.scottanewcomer.com/〕 Newcomer is also the owner of House to Home Inspections, a successful full service Home Inspection company in SE Wisconsin that he runs with his wife Amy. ==Legislation== Newcomer has sponsored legislation to streamline consolidation between municipalities by allowing for dual tax rates; this was intended to make consolidation between the Village of Pewaukee and the City of Pewaukee.〔Mike Johnson, "(Community merger proposal revived )" ''Milwaukee Journal Sentinel'' April 17, 2007〕〔http://scottnewcomer.com/services.html〕 In April 2007, Newcomer sponsored legislation to allow up to six ounces in beer to be given as free samples by stores. The bill was signed into law in May 2007.〔〔"(Lawmakers OK free beer samples )" ''The Spokesman-Review'' April 18, 2007, at A3〕 Autism Mandate. Newcomer and the Assembly Republicans said the state should dedicate roughly $6 million more to the Medicaid autism program to eliminate the waiting list. “The most important aspect of my bill was to take care of all those kids on the waiting list. That’s what we had to do now because nobody had the perfect solution for the long term,” Newcomer said. Newcomer along with fellow Republican Kevin Petersen of Waupaca voted against the children's autism health insurance mandate that was proposed by an executive order by Governor James E. Doyle. Newcomer and Petersen who both have children with autism were the two building blocks in getting the bill defeated in the Republican controlled assembly claiming that less children with autism would receive coverage even if the mandate passed.〔http://www.stateline.org/live/details/story?contentId=305315.
