Dear Kevin:

We understand that the Wisconsin State Elections Board (SEB) will be meeting this Friday, June 23, 2006 to again re-evaluate the state's compliance with the federal Help America Vote Act (HAVA) as it pertains to voter registration. We write today to urge the board to revert to its original decision back in January that stated if a person has a valid driver's license they must provide their license number when registering to vote.

We are aware that a letter was sent to you on June 13, 2006 by John Tanner, Chief of the Voting Section of the Civil Rights Division of the U.S. Department of Justice (USDOJ), that clearly indicates the decision made by the SEB to allow the last 4-digits of a person's Social Security number for registration purposes, even if the person has a valid driver's license, violates federal law.

Along with the June 13th letter, you should have received a copy of the letter written to us from William E. Moschella, Assistant Attorney General in the office of Legislative Affairs at USDOJ on June 6th that again clearly indicates HAVA's requirement that if a person has a valid driver's license, they must provide that number for voter registration purposes.

The evidence against the SEB's decision to allow for a person to register with the last 4-digits of a Social Security number even if they have a valid driver's license is undeniable. We would strongly urge the SEB to revert to its January 18, 2006 decision rather than waste taxpayer money by fighting a potential federal lawsuit.

Sincerely, Congressman F. James Sensenbrenner, Jr., Congressman Mark Green

According to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel the Wisconsin State Election Board has decided to Violate the Law anyway. The only reason to break the law is when following the law prevents you from obtaining your goal, so what could the State Elections Board desire?
