A meeting at the Little White Schoolhouse held on March 20, 1854, to protest the westward expansion of slavery, eventually led to the formation of the Republican Party. | This schoolhouse, the birthplace of the Republican party, is an icon we are proud to have as a part of history here in our state. | But earlier this week the Little White Schoolhouse was moved to a new location that no longer qualifies it for national historic monument status. | This has caused an uproar as many are disappointed and frustrated with some saying this move is an attempt to “erase the history” of the Republican party’s anti-slavery roots. | We need to FIGHT BACK to defend our history and protect the legacy of freedom that our party has stood for since its founding in Ripon. | That’s why we need your help to keep this historic monument a part of Wisconsin and Republican history alive. | Paid for by the Republican Party of Wisconsin.
