ASSEMBLY SPECIAL ELECTION TOMORROW!
DON'T FORGET TO VOTE!


A special primary election will be held tomorrow, Tuesday, June 15, in the 37th Assembly District (AD). The 37th AD, located in parts of Columbia, Dane, Dodge, and Jefferson counties, includes parts of the cities of Columbus and Watertown, the city of Waterloo, as well as the villages of Lowell and Reeseville.

The Pro-Life Wisconsin Victory Fund Political Action Committee (PAC) has proudly endorsed Republican Will Penterman in the 37th AD summer special election. The Republican primary election will likely confirm the next state assemblyman from the 37th District, as the district is solidly conservative.

The Victory Fund PAC endorses candidates who recognize the personhood of the preborn baby and hold the principled and compassionate no-exceptions pro-life position. We stand behind candidates who stand behind 100% of the babies.

For those of you who live in the 37th AD, tomorrow’s June 15 primary election is too important to miss. Plan to exercise your right to vote TOMORROW and encourage your family and friends to do the same. Vote for life, and may God bless Wisconsin!
CELEBRATE DAD THIS FATHER'S DAY!

Father's Day is THIS SUNDAY! Celebrate your dad or a special man in your life by giving in memory, in celebration, in gratitude, or in thanksgiving of him! When you give, Pro-Life Wisconsin will send a beautiful card of carnations to let him know that you are thinking of him and praying for him this Father's Day!


Your donation of any amount you choose not only lets your dad know that you are thinking of him, but it also directly helps Wisconsin dads in need through our 1 Person at a Time Program.

Will you help us celebrate pro-life dads this month?
TRUE TO LIFE MEDIA CAMPAIGN PROGRAM

Did you know that one of PLW’s educational programs focuses on spreading the pro-life message through online, media, print ads, billboards, radio, and other media outlets? The True to Life Media Campaign Program is entirely focused on changing hearts and minds through media.

If you’ve seen the billboards on NB and SB I-41, or the most recent billboard on I-94 eastbound, near Highway 16, or you’re following @ProLifeWI on social media platforms (Facebook, Instagram, Parlor, MeWe), you’re seeing the powerful impact of this program.

But we need YOU to help promote and spread this program in your community. Please consider prayerfully how you can be an influencer. Whether you are following PLW on social media platforms, commenting/sharing PLW’s posts, inviting your friends, family, classmates, coworkers to follow PLW and sign up for our weekly e-newsletter The Monday Update, or donating to fund more billboards, radio ads, and print ads…everything you do can help change hearts and minds with the truth of the pro-life message.

We’re always looking for ways to expand the impact of this program, so please reach out if you have ideas or donate here to support this program.
PURCHASE YOUR CHOOSE LIFE WISCONSIN PLATE, AND SAVE LIVES FROM ABORTION!

Choose Life license plates have been available to Wisconsin motorists since late October 2017. Pro-Life Wisconsin and Wisconsin Family Council partnered to underwrite all the administrative costs of Choose Life Wisconsin, which allows us to give every penny that comes from the sale of the plates to Wisconsin’s incredible pregnancy care centers!

With 1,791 of these plates on cars in the Badger State, sales have resulted in a total of nearly $100,000 which has been granted to over twenty-five Wisconsin pregnancy resource centers in a little over two years.

If you would like to be a part of the mission to save lives, get your Choose Life Wisconsin license plate today! For more information call Pro-Life Wisconsin at 262-796-1111 ext. 110.

PRO-LIFE NEWS

SCHOOLMATE OF PRO-ABORTION VALEDICTORIAN PAXTON SMITH FIRES BACK: ‘THERE IS A WAR ON… THE RIGHT TO LIFE’: (Live Action News) –I am ashamed of Paxton’s denigrating view of the female capacity. To say that one must have an abortion to be able to accomplish their dreams is not only a slap in the face to the millions of women who have worked hard to overcome their obstacles as a mother, but it is degrading to women as a whole.” Read the full op-ed here.

NEW MOTHER QUALIFIES FOR U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS IN AMAZING 32-MINUTE 10K: (Live Action News) –Women are often told that motherhood and success don’t mix. But that hasn’t stopped runner Makenna Myler, a mother of a newborn, from recently qualifying for the U.S. Olympic trials in a staggering 32-minute 10k. An emotional TikTok video of Myler qualifying for the U.S. Olympic trials just seven months after giving birth to her daughter is reminding women everywhere that dreams and goals are not extinguished by motherhood.” Read the full story here.
