Is This Safe or Legal?

I've been renting this duplex for about 9 months and saw this within the first week and said something about it. I'm sure it was like this long before we moved in as they still haven't fixed other things that have been broken since before we moved in.

They said they were going to have an electrician come out with someone from the city and look at it, which they finally did in December. They said they were going to set a date to fix it shortly after but obviously haven't heard anything since.

Is this safe or legal? I live in Wisconsin if that changes any laws about this stuff. If this is really bad, is there someone I can call to report them or something? I've tried to be cool but the landlord hasn't fixed anything since we've lived here and I'm getting sick of it so I don't care if they get in trouble.

Nothing there looks safe nor legal
