Monday's decision came in a case brought against Walker and the accountability board by the League of Women Voters of Wisconsin.”

“The League of Women Voters, the American Association of Retired People and several other groups are opposing the bills because many eligible voters don't have the type of identification required and could have difficulty getting it.”
