New laws, 2017–2018

370 bills became Wisconsin Acts this session, 4 of them signed with a partial veto.

The final votes are each chamber's last recorded passage roll call. A chamber without one passed the bill without a roll call. Special sessions share the session's act numbers, so their acts are here too.
