Voter Photo ID Law Status: No ID Currently Required for Voting

Two separate judges, on March 6 and March 12, 2012, have issued injunctions preventing the Government Accountability Board from enforcing photo ID requirements in 2011 Act 23. The Wisconsin Department of Justice has appealed those injunctions, and the cases are currently in the Court of Appeals.

On September 27, 2012, the Wisconsin Supreme Court declined for a second time to hear the cases prior to action by the Court of Appeals.
