Facing Recall, Wisconsin GOP Will Hustle Through Voter ID Bill That Disenfranchises Students, Seniors

In response to the state GOP’s campaign against workers’ rights, Democrats and labor activists gathered well over the number of signatures needed to file recall petitions against six state Republican senators last month. Should the petitions be certified, officials would call the first election for July 12.
The unprecedented recall effort has set the GOP scrambling to pass their agenda quickly, in case they lose their majority this summer. Not only will they once again target public employees and try to legalize concealed weapons, now state Republicans are rushing through a voter ID bill that would disenfranchise many Wisconsin voters:
