The lawsuit was filed on behalf of Wisconsin citizen, Rick Braun, and represents WILL\u2019s efforts to protect Wisconsin elections \u2013 ensuring that government officials follow the law.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><strong>The Quote:<\/strong> WILL Deputy Counsel, Lucas Vebber, said, \u201cWEC has notified the Court that it complied with the judge\u2019s order to stop allowing use of the National Mail Voter Registration Form as a result of our win in court two weeks ago. WILL is proud to stand for the rule of law and secure this critical victory for election integrity.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><strong>Additional Background:<\/strong> The Court decided that use of the National Form to register a voter in Wisconsin is illegal because the Form had not been lawfully adopted for use in this state. The Court further enjoined WEC from issuing any guidance that the Form is approved for use in Wisconsin unless and until it is legally adopted; and ordered WEC to withdraw any existing guidance which purports to allow use of the Form, and to notify all municipal clerks that it may not be used going forward. The judge ordered WEC to issue an affidavit stating as such by Tuesday, September 19th and they complied Monday afternoon.<\/div>\n<div>\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><strong>Read More:\u00a0<\/strong><\/div>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/will-law.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Letter-to-Judge-Maxwell-Braun-v.-WEC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-link-type=\"web\">Letter, September 2023<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/will-law.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Affidavit-of-James-Witecha-Braun-v-WEC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-link-type=\"web\">Affidavit, September 2023<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_4 et_pb_column_1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_team_member et_pb_team_member_0 clearfix  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_team_member_image et-waypoint et_pb_animation_off\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"604\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Lucas-Vebber.jpeg\" alt=\"Lucas Vebber\" class=\"wp-image-11375\" \/><\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_team_member_description\">\n<h4 class=\"et_pb_module_header\">Lucas Vebber<\/h4>\n<p class=\"et_pb_member_position\">Deputy Counsel<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>lucas@will-law.org<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/will-law.org\/wec-complies-with-judges-order-removes-unlawful-form-from-its-website\/\">WEC Complies with Judge\u2019s Order, Removes Unlawful Form from its Website<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/will-law.org\">Wisconsin Institute for Law &amp; Liberty<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This post originally appeared at https:\/\/will-law.org\/wec-complies-with-judges-order-removes-unlawful-form-from-its-website\/ WILL\u2019s Legal Victory Will Protect Wisconsinites from Election Error&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":256,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5700","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-will"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5700","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=5700"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5700\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5702,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5700\/revisions\/5702"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/256"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=5700"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=5700"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wifamily.news\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=5700"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
