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.
She said, “I’ve seen an abortion before. It’s just a mass of tissue.” It didn’t hit me at that time, but I came to realize she was talking about her own abortion. This is what happens when women and men don’t heal from their abortion. Misery wants company. This woman needs healing and prayer. Thank you in advance for praying for this woman. She was lied to about her baby. Now she has heard the truth. The rest is up to God.
“This may sound crazy, but this little hat reminded me of when I was here nine years ago for an abortion. A woman on the sidewalk gave me a knit baby hat just like this one. I decided to not have the abortion because of that woman’s kindness and the little gift she gave me. This is too much of a coincidence. You guys saved my baby back then. He is now nine years old and here you are again! This is the sign I was looking for. I can’t have the abortion now. No way.”
Ask any pro-lifer about The Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrance (FACE) Act and you will get myriad responses—from an eye roll, or fear, to downright anger—because the FACE Act made it a federal crime to block access (or entrance) to an abortion facility. It was President Bill Clinton’s response to the highly successful Rescue Movement.
The teenage mom smiled at me waving her ultrasound photo and said, “Dan! My baby is beautiful! We ain’t gonna’ get the abortion! But, Dan, I’m not going to give you your sweatshirt back. I’m going to make a pillow out of it for my baby. I’m going to tell her how you saved her life every time she goes to sleep.”
When I hear politicians or businesses lamenting about labor shortages in Wisconsin from either side of the political spectrum, I always point to the number of babies aborted in Wisconsin since the beginning of Roe. From my perspective, you do not get to complain about labor shortages when you or your party has either supported abortion or did no more than the bare minimum to qualify you as “pro-life” to your constituents.
As Ann, one of the pro-lifers from Green Bay offered pro-life literature to an abortion-bound woman headed into the center, the woman turned and smacked Ann. Immediately, Tallulah, a fellow Green Bay pro-lifer yelled out to the attacker, “Hey! You can’t do that! Stop that!” The abortion-bound woman then turned her attention to Tallulah in the distance and read her shirt which read, “I REGRET MY ABORTION.” It took her a moment to process the words, but when she did, she ran the distance, grabbed Tallulah’s shirt, and tried to swing her to the ground.
These bills protect our right to make our own health decisions, our right to follow our conscience, and our right to freely exchange in commerce. ACT NOW! It is not certain that all five bills will be scheduled for Assembly floor debate and passage. It is imperative that AB 309 be voted on by the full Assembly! Please CALL Assembly leadership ON TUESDAY, JUNE 8th, and urge them to place AB 309 on the calendar for their next floor session.
