Last Tuesday, Pro-Life Wisconsin and our local affiliate, Price County Respect Life, gathered with 40 pro-lifers in the Northwoods of Wisconsin for our inaugural Fall Gathering. We came together at Burgers Bar and Grill in Phillips, WI, to enjoy pro-life company, food and drink, educate on the life issues, and honor Wisconsin State Senator Romaine Quinn (R-Cameron) as Pro-Life Wisconsin’s 2024 Legislator of the Year.
Dear President Trump,
Congratulations on becoming the 47th president of the United States of America! You have faced insurmountable odds, including attempts on your very life, and you have won a hard battle. May God bless you as you prepare to return to the White House next January.
But do not forget those who put you back into office, Mr. President. Pro-life voters turned to you to stave off a Harris presidency that would have brought abortion-on-demand up until birth into every corner of the United States; blue, red, and purple counties alike.
It is with heavy hearts that we share the loss of three incredible members of the Pro-Life Wisconsin (PLW) family. Heather Kramer and her sons Benjamin and Simon passed away in a tragic automobile accident last Wednesday. Heather and her husband Roy had 13 children, and had lost their youngest, Rose, in 2020.

Last Thursday, my cell phone rang. I didn’t recognize the number, but not knowing if someone was trying to reach me for work, I picked it up.
“Hello, this is Teresa,” I said.
“Hi!” said a female voice on the other end of the line. She then went on to explain she was with a local Democrat group and asked if I would be voting for Kamala Harris in the upcoming general election.
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.
Here's a real story about a baby saved in January at Planned Parenthood in Milwaukee.
On Tuesday, February 9, 2021, I was present on the sidewalk outside one of the two remaining abortion centers in Milwaukee, Affiliated Medical Services, and a woman was heading into the building. I began to speak in Spanish to her as she made her way into the abortion center and handed her a magazine provided to us by our friends at Human Life Alliance.
Legislation has been reintroduced by State Senator Mary Felzkowski (R-Irma) permitting pharmacists to prescribe and dispense hormonal contraceptive patches (the Patch) and self-administered oral hormonal contraceptives (the Pill) to persons 18 years of age and older. Act now to oppose this legislation!
We thank God for our county affiliates who do so much in their own communities to cultivate a culture of life. We know that abortion does not happen on the Supreme Court steps, nor at the State Capitol, but right here in our own communities. When we say NO to abortion at the local level, it echoes throughout our great state and nation.
