MADISON, WI (AP)— The Republican-controlled Wisconsin Legislature is preparing to pass a package of fast-tracked bills this week that will make it more difficult to vote in the presidential battleground state—election year measures that are all but certain to be vetoed by Democratic Governor Tony Evers.
The proposals are part of a nationwide effort by Republicans to reshape elections following President Joe Biden’s win over Donald Trump, who has falsely claimed the election was stolen.
The Wisconsin Senate is expected to take up more than a dozen measures on Tuesday, with final passage in the Assembly expected on Thursday.
