MATCHING GIFT: SAVE MORE
CHILDREN LIKE MARCUS

Thank you to our generous supporters who are matching all gifts to Pro-Life Wisconsin up to $85,000 through December 31, 2021! Please make your gift today to save more children like Marcus.

It was a gorgeous day, yet the abortion facility was exceptionally busy. Amidst the bustle of the day, I noticed a car parked directly in front of the pregnancy resource center across the street, and one of the passengers seemed to gesture, “Come here!” When I approached, the passenger said, “We want you to talk her [Monique] out of having the abortion!”

As I went down the list of a thousand reasons why to not kill her child, I noticed Monique digging into a bag she had received from the pregnancy resource center. She pulled out a hand-knit baby hat from the bag, gasped, and then began to tear up saying, “I was going to go directly to my appointment at the abortion clinic but decided to go to the pregnancy center instead. This may sound crazy, but this little hat just reminded me of when I was here nine years ago for another abortion. A woman on the sidewalk gave me a hand-knit baby hat just like this one, and I decided to not have the abortion because of that woman’s kindness and the gift she gave me. You guys saved my baby back then. He's now nine years old, and here you are again! This is the sign I was looking for. I can’t have this abortion now. No way. You saved both my babies.”

Monique then asked if she could bring her nine-year-old son, Marcus, out to the sidewalks sometime to introduce him to the people who saved his life.

We wish you could be present with us when we meet this young man because it is YOU – your prayers and financial support – that allow us to save children like Marcus and so many others.

ATTORNEY GENERAL JOSH KAUL WON'T ENFORCE ANY WISCONSIN ABORTION BAN: (Associated Press) – “Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul said in an interview Tuesday that he would not investigate or prosecute anyone for having an abortion should the U.S. Supreme Court overturn Roe v. Wade and a currently unenforceable state ban takes effect.” Read the full story here.

FDA’S ABORTION PILL RULING PLACES ‘POLITICS OVER THE LIVES AND HEALTH OF WOMEN’: (LifeSiteNews, Operation Rescue) – “Capitulating to the pro-abortion radical left, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) made the political decision to permanently lift the in-person requirements on abortion inducing drugs, opening the door to abortion pills to be delivered through the mail after only a brief internet consultation. Twenty states [including WI] have already passed laws that prevent the distribution of abortion drugs without an in-clinic visit with a licensed physician and or by mail. These states are expected to be unaffected by the recent FDA ruling.” Read the full story here.

TEXAS ABORTION BUSINESSES ADMIT LIKELY DEFEAT: ABORTION BAN IS PROBABLY HERE TO STAY: (LifeNews.com) – “Texas abortion business are admitting likely defeat and suggesting that the abortion ban is probably here to stay after the Supreme Court essentially gutter their lawsuit against it. The Texas abortion ban will continue saving babies from abortions for the remainder of the year and into 2022 and likely indefinitely.” (NOTE: The Texas Heartbeat Act has an explicit exception for “medical emergency.” It has no exception for rape and incest or fetal anomaly.)
