voter-id-2025MADISON – Senator Jeff Smith (D-Brunswick) issued the following statement about his opposition to 2025 Senate Joint Resolution 2 during the Senate floor session today:

“It is Day Three of the 2025-2026 legislative session. Already, Republicans skirted the rules and rushed senators into a senate floor session. Republicans are more afraid of voters and losing power than they are about the issues that are impacting those voters. Instead of addressing the fears of citizens about clean drinking water, reproductive rights or mass-shooting tragedies, Republicans’ fear is making them lose focus of the issues that really matter.

“Many of us had hoped things would be different now that Republicans lost their super majority and there’s a more equitable split in our chamber between Democrats and Republicans. Unfortunately, we were let down today, but there’s plenty of time to find a way to work in a bipartisan manner on issues that Wisconsin families care about instead of rushing to cling to power.”
