“Then Jesus said to them, ‘Do not be afraid’ ” (Matthew 28:10a RSV).
Jesus’s first words after His resurrection to his disciples are that of calm and strength. “Do not be afraid,” He commands them, as He commands us. But how often is fear the driving factor in life?
The Juneau County Board is considering Resolution: No. 26-12, on Tuesday, February 17, 2026, at 9:30am. The meeting is to consider approving the purchase of a public health vending machine for Necedah. To our dismay, there is already one in Elroy and in Mauston near a playground. The vending machine is free. Access to the vending machine is unrestricted. Minor children capable of pushing buttons can access condoms packaged with Health First’s advertising.
You never know when or how your pro-life efforts will make a difference in someone’s life. This is one of those stories!
Friends of Pro-Life Wisconsin Bob and Kathy Kougl recently got together with a fellow churchgoer from Saint Stanislaus Catholic Church to recall their story and document it for posterity. We are grateful to all the people involved in making sure it was told! Here is the story as told by Bob…
In October, our State Director, Dan, our Legislative Director, Matt, and I were in a meeting at a local coffee shop giving some legislative and educational updates to a donor. During the meeting, a man who noticed our Pro-Life Wisconsin logos came up to our table, introduced himself, and showed us a photo on his phone, saying…
Leonardo da Vinci once said: “Iron rusts from disuse; stagnant water loses its purity and in cold weather becomes frozen; even so does inaction sap the vigor of the mind.”
Like any great structure, there must be a strong foundation. Our 2nd pillar helps us avoid the stagnation da Vinci refers to and provides the strength we need to push on: ACTIVISM.

A newborn baby was surrendered to the Safe Haven Baby Box in Racine, Wisconsin, near Washington and Lathrop Avenues, around 12:15 p.m., on October 16, 2025. This is the first time a mother used a Safe Haven Baby Box in the state, explained the Racine Fire Department.
However, thanks to efforts by the Racine Fire Department, Racine Knights of Columbus, Council 15659, Pro-Life Wisconsin, and Wisconsin Right to Life, the first Safe Haven Baby Box located on the outside of Racine’s Fire Station 4, 3829 Washington Ave., Racine, WI, will serve as a secure place where a parent can safely and anonymously place their newborn.
I am delighted by the fact that one of our main pillars at Pro-Life Wisconsin is: EDUCATE.
Prior to being the Development Director at Pro-Life Wisconsin, I was in student ministry for 14 years teaching, leading, and shepherding teenagers aged 12-18 through the most transformative part of their lives. I have always had a passion for pointing students to the truth that comes from God’s Word.
That day began like any other day down on the sidewalks in front of the abortion center. On Thursday, November 6, 2025, Ellen* was counseling women entering the abortion center when something happened that was completely unexpected—a reminder that God is working with and through us even when we are not aware of it. He is always faithful.
State Sen. Romaine Quinn (R-Cameron) and State Rep. Joy Goeben (R-Hobart) have introduced companion legislation (Senate Bill [SB] 553/Assembly Bill [AB] 546) that provides definitional clarity in Wisconsin abortion law.
The bills do so by amending the various statutory definitions of “abortion” to make explicit that a physician’s performance of a medical procedure or treatment designed or intended to prevent the death of a pregnant woman and not designed or intended to kill the unborn child is not an abortion.
July 2025 saw the landscape of our laws in Wisconsin shift and settle back to the Roe days with the dismissal of Planned Parenthood v. Urmanski and Kaul v. Urmanski decision which saw the fall of our 1849 abortion ban. Let’s take a look at each of these to see what we are now up against with the future of the Pro-Life Movement in Wisconsin.
On an 87-10 bipartisan vote, the Wisconsin Assembly passed Assembly Bill (AB) 43 last Tuesday, legislation introduced in a misguided attempt to reduce unplanned pregnancies. The bill, authored by State Representative Joel Kitchens (R-Sturgeon Bay) and State Senator Rachael Cabral-Guevara (R-Appleton), permits pharmacists to prescribe hormonal contraceptive patches (the Patch) and self-administered oral hormonal contraceptives (the Pill) to persons 18 years of age and older.
Editorial Update 6.13.2025: March for Life Wisconsin has been rescheduled to Saturday, July 26, 2025. More information can be found at MarchforLifeWisconsin.org.
Did you know that June 14, 2025, marks the annual March for Life Wisconsin? On the second Saturday of June, hundreds if not thousands of pro-life, pro-family people from communities around Wisconsin will gather together at the State Street steps at the State Capitol in Madison from 2-4pm. There, we will rally with speakers who will address a variety of pro-life, pro-family topics as we support women and their babies and “embrace them both.”
The person we want to see there?
