An investigation into Wisconsin’s 2020 election was paused by Assembly Speaker Robin Vos in an announcement on May 11 amid several legal battles.

Former Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman was commissioned last year by Vos, a Republican, to probe the election results and allegations of fraud. However, the investigation has faced at least five lawsuits since its inception.
