How do I get a free photo ID to vote? |
Wisconsin Act 23 requires the Department of Transportation to
provide free ID cards:
SECTION 140. 343.50 (5) (a) 3. of the
statutes is created to read:
343.50 (5) (a) 3. The department may not charge a fee to an
applicant for the initial issuance or reinstatement of an
identification card if the applicant is a U.S. citizen who will
be at least 18 years of age on the date of the next election
and the applicant requests that the identification card be
provided without charge for purposes of voting.
For information about the requirements to obtain a Wisconsin ID
card, please visit the Department of Transportation website:

Because of the need to obtain a birth certificate and other
documents, voters are urged to start the process early. |
