At about 8pm last night, my phone started buzzing and beeping more than usual. One of the messages was, “AMS is reopening March 5th!”  AT&T service van outside of Affiliated Medical Services abortion center. This last Thursday, I got a call from a great pro-lifer, Mr. Pickles.  He was on Milwaukee’s East Side and noticed they had taken down all the realtor signs from the front window at Affiliated Medical Services (1428 N Farwell Ave), the abortion center that closed in 2022 following Dobbs.  He told me that someone had also drawn the blinds and that, “the Asian lady was th ..read more

Many have asked me over the years what’s the “secret sauce” to saving babies at abortion centers.  My number one answer is almost always, “showing up.”  It is possible to save babies online, over the phone, text messaging, video conference, but in my opinion, nothing surpasses the personal interaction of a one-on-one conversation with an abortion-oriented mom at an abortion center.  Of course, we know the mom is serious about the abortion because SHE is there.  Conversely, she knows we are serious about saving her baby because WE are there.  Our presence speaks VOLUMES ..read more

State Senator André Jacque (R-De Pere) and State Representative Elijah Behnke (R-Oconto) have introduced companion legislation, Senate Bill (SB) 300 and Assembly Bill (AB) 247 respectively, in the Wisconsin Legislature. Together these bills, entitled the Taxpayer Abortion Subsidy Prevention Act, would prohibit the use of public employees and public property for activities relating to abortion. Should legal abortion ever return to Wisconsin, either by judicial ruling or statutory enactment, it is critical that we have laws on the books that shield taxpayers from subsidizing the killing of their ..read more

PRO-LIFE WISCONSIN STRONGLY OPPOSES LEGISLATION WEAKENING STATE ABORTION BAN Today, March 15, 2023, State Senator Mary Felzkowski (R-Irma) and State Representative Donna Rozar (R-Marshfield) circulated for co-sponsorship legislation (LRB 2151/1 & LRB 2432/1) that would severely weaken Wisconsin’s current law abortion ban, s. 940.04, by adding exceptions for abortion in the cases of sexual assault, incest, life and health of the mother, and lethal fetal anomaly. "A vote to add more exceptions to Wisconsin’s abortion ban is a vote to kill more preborn babies. It is that simple," said Matt S ..read more

DEMAND GOVERNOR EVERS AND ATTORNEY GENERAL KAUL ENFORCE WISCONSIN'S ABORTION LAW s.940.04 On Friday, June 24, 2022, the United States Supreme Court delivered a monumental opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization – which overturned the precedent set in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. Now the issue of abortion has returned to the states, and it is up to our state attorney general, Josh Kaul, and county district attorneys to enforce Wisconsin’s pre-Roe criminal abortion statute 940.04 which states: (1) Any person, other than the mother, who intentionally dest ..read more

Jackson Women’s Health Organization – a case that could overturn the precedent set in Roe v. Wade and Planned Parenthood v. Casey. Should Roe and Casey be overturned by the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs, the issue of abortion would return to the states. Here in the Badger State, it will be up to our state attorney general, Josh Kaul, and county district attorneys to enforce ..read more

A POST-ROE WISCONSIN By Matt Sande, Pro-Life Wisconsin Legislative Director The United States Supreme Court is on the precipice of overturning its most egregious ruling: Roe v. Wade. After 49 years and over sixty million slain, it is far past time Roe be tossed upon the ash heap of history. I am of course referring to the Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization pending the United States Supreme Court decision. The high court is considering Mississippi’s abortion ban, which prohibits abortion after 15 weeks’ gestation. Regrettably, the Mississippi law provides an exception for medical emer ..read more

PRO-LIFE WISCONSIN CALLS FOR PRAYER, PEACE, AND SAFETY By Anna DeMeuse, Pro-Life Wisconsin Communications Director Early Sunday morning, Pro-Life Wisconsin received news that the office of our ally, Wisconsin Family Action, had been attacked. The perpetrators set fire to the office, threw Molotov cocktails into the space, and wrote graffiti on the exterior of the building which read, “If abortions aren’t safe then you aren’t either.” Thankfully, none of our friends at Wisconsin Family Action were present at the time of the attack. We pray for the entire staff that they may receive comfort in ..read more
