An Assembly bill co-introduced by State Assemblyman Paul Tittl of Manitowoc has made it through a Wisconsin Senate Committee.
Assembly Bill 543 would allow election workers to stand not more than three feet away from a table where voters announce their name and address and not more than three feet away from where someone can register to vote.
The Wisconsin Committee on Shared Revenue, Elections, and Consumer Protections voted 3-2 on party lines.
The bill could now head to the Wisconsin Senate for a full vote.
The bill passed the Wisconsin Assembly earlier this month.
It’s not known if Gov. Tony Evers would sign the bill.
