Senate Bill 1071 aims to establish new provisions regarding the eligibility of candidates for federal office in Wisconsin. The bill creates two new sections in the statutes: 7.75 (3) and 8.30 (5). Under these provisions, the official or agency responsible for handling declarations of candidacy is prohibited from placing the name of a candidate for president, vice president, U.S. senator, or representative in Congress on the ballot if it is conclusively determined that the candidate is ineligible under the U.S. Constitution. This determination can be based on the nomination papers or the candidate's admission.

Additionally, the bill stipulates that presidential electors are also barred from voting for candidates for president or vice president if it is conclusively established that the candidate is ineligible under the U.S. Constitution. This legislation seeks to ensure that only constitutionally eligible candidates are nominated and elected to federal office in Wisconsin.
