On June 27, 2024, the Commission members voted to approve the draft language of the proposed emergency and permanent rules relating to training for election inspectors and special voting deputies (SVD).
The current step for both proposed permanent rules is the Economic Impact Analysis. Please take a look at the documents posted here: https://elections.wi.gov/draft-rule-chapter-el-13-training-election-inspectors-special-voting-deputies.
The documents are the Scope Statement, the draft rule order, which contains the full text of the permanent rule as approved by the Commission, draft Economic Impact Analysis, and a notice inviting individuals affected by the rule to comment on any economic impacts that might stem from the rule.
This round of comments is focused exclusively on economic impacts. The round of comments after this will be a public hearing and comment period, and the Commission will then accept all comments on the text of the rule. Though you may prepare comments on the text and substance of the rule using this draft, please do not submit comments on the rule text until the public hearing and comment period has been noticed by the Commission. You will receive another notice once the Commission has approved a public hearing and comment period.
Economic impact comments will be accepted until 5 p.m. on Monday, August 19, 2024, and can be emailed to Angela O’Brien Sharpe at @email. Please let us know if you wish to collaborate with us on the Economic Impact Analysis.
