Company Is Forcing Me To Resign So I Don't Get Severance. Wisconsin

Location: Wisconsin
I work for company A who has a contract with Company B.
Company B has not been satisfied with the contract work in the past couple months and decided to terminate the contract which is ending on October 31st (my last scheduled day the 29th).
Company B liked my work enough to offer me a job with my official sign on date October 31st
What company A is doing with the employees who are assigned this contract is laying them off if they cannot be absorbed. Which is the majority of them.
This for the most part has been a plesent contract ending and everyone was happy up until a couple days ago, where they asked the few who were welcomed over to company B to resign prior to October 31st. With this resignation we do not get our severance or un-employment. If we do not resign, it will be marked as abandonment of position and also not getting Severance or unemployment.
Also of note this has not been sent to me in writing and only been told over voice chat that was presumably not recorded. Which is really sketching me out and feels like this is not legal. But I would like some opinions from someone who actually knows the law.
Any advice?
