At about 8pm last night, my phone started buzzing and beeping more than usual. One of the messages was, “AMS is reopening March 5th!”
This last Thursday, I got a call from a great pro-lifer, Mr. Pickles. He was on Milwaukee’s East Side and noticed they had taken down all the realtor signs from the front window at Affiliated Medical Services (1428 N Farwell Ave), the abortion center that closed in 2022 following Dobbs…
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.
The United States Supreme Court is on the precipice of overturning its most egregious ruling: Roe v. Wade. After 49 years and over sixty million slain, it is far past time Roe be tossed upon the ash heap of history. If the Supreme Court overturns Roe and Casey and sends the abortion issue back to the states, it is critical that we be prepared to protect every preborn child in Wisconsin from the moment of conception. This will require two, and possibly three, state legislative actions.
Early Sunday morning, Pro-Life Wisconsin received news that the office of our ally, Wisconsin Family Action, had been attacked. The perpetrators set fire to the office, threw Molotov cocktails into the space, and wrote graffiti on the exterior which read, “If abortions aren’t safe then you aren’t either.”
Planned Parenthood Federation of America, Inc. published its’ 2019-2020 Annual Report last week which indicated both a rise in abortions and taxpayer funding. With this staggering report from America’s #1 abortion provider, the priority of Planned Parenthood is abundantly clear – continue to expand abortion and the culture of death.
With your help, Pro-Life Wisconsin will continue to lead the fight against SB 30 in the Wisconsin Senate. We must stop this legislation in the Senate!

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.
