John,

Yesterday, Governor Evers vetoed six election integrity bills put forward by Republicans in the state Legislature, which would have strengthened election integrity and increased transparency in Wisconsin’s electoral process.

Among the bills Evers vetoed were SB 203, which would have explicitly authorized the use of drop boxes to collect absentee ballots and placed various restrictions on their use, SB 204, which would have prevented bad actors from abusing “indefinitely confined” status to avoid showing photo ID, and SB 210, which would have allowed election observers to be no more than three feet from tables at which voting activities are occurring.

As we said in our statement yesterday, all state elected officials, regardless of party, should want Wisconsinites to feel confident in the results of our elections. It’s absurd that Tony Evers is fundamentally unwilling to engage on the issue of election integrity while Wisconsinites across the state seek commonsense reforms to strengthen voter confidence and prevent fraud. Tony Evers’ performative veto is just more of the same partisan theatrics that Democrats have used in their quest to hinder election integrity across the country.

We knew Governor Evers was going to veto these bills -- but the fight to secure our elections is just getting started.

Thank you,
