Trump Administration Accuses Wisconsin of Violating Federal Election Law
- On Wednesday, the Trump administration announced plans to block future federal funding for the Wisconsin Elections Commission due to alleged legal violations in Madison.
- This action comes after a state court decision in Wisconsin in 2022 that prohibited ballot drop boxes, coupled with criticism that the Wisconsin Elections Commission does not have a process for handling election law violation complaints.
- A letter from the Justice Department highlighted that without a formal complaint procedure, voters are left without a way to address their concerns, and it warned that future federal funding to the Wisconsin Elections Commission should be withheld.
- The letter noted Wisconsin has received over $77 million in federal funds over about 20 years, but WEC Chair Ann Jacobs said no new federal funding is currently available.
- Republican state legislators delayed a budget vote on WEC funding, while the dispute suggests possible challenges for future federal and state election financing in Wisconsin.
