America Should Keep Faith In Public Square
Recently, US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, a devout Christian, spoke at a large Baptist church in Texas. In his address, the Secretary in referring to his current position, said, “It’s only because of God’s grace in my life that I’ve had this chance.” He shared that he keeps a Bible on his office table and digs into God’s Word each day. “Don’t ever give up shining the light," he emphasized. "Don’t ever walk away from an opportunity to put faith in the public square…Stay true. Keep believing. All of us together, we’ll make this nation a light unto the world.”
 Much is being said right now with all that is happening in our government and politics, especially with the passing of Justice Ginsburg, Christians need to heed Secretary Pompeo’s advice. We need to be bright lights that show the right path. We need to do this with civility, grace and genuine concern for people. This is a perfect time to honor God by acting and speaking in a truly Christ-like way.

Last Saturday, President Trump nominated an eminently qualified candidate, Amy Coney Barrett, for the US Supreme Court! Unsurprisingly, the radical Left has already unleashed on Judge Barrett and is holding nothing back in their attacks on her. We’ve seen this before.
As conservatives, we know what we are getting with Amy Coney Barrett, and the Left doesn’t like it. They don’t want to see a successful and intelligent judge, wife, and mother of seven take this seat because they know she is not an activist judge who will be swayed by the winds of culture and “elite” opinion.
We must fill this seat with a nominee of integrity who will deliver an unimpeachable originalist record on the high court. Judge Barrett is that type of nominee. She will be that type of Justice on the Supreme Court!
 Please call our Wisconsin senators TODAY! They NEED to hear from you. Let them know you support Judge Amy Coney Barrett for the Supreme Court. Let them know they need to vote for her confirmation. Let them know they need to stand up and speak out against the obstruction and lies that are sure to come during the confirmation process.
Senator Ron Johnson (R) – Washington office phone: 202-224-5323. Send Sen. Johnson an email HERE.
Senator Tammy Baldwin (D) – Washington office phone: 202-224-5653. Send Sen. Baldwin an email HERE.
TWO CALLS, THAT'S ALL! CLICK HERE to learn more about what YOU can do to support Judge Amy Coney Barrett today!
Finding Your Sample Ballot; Checking It Twice
 With the election now just barely a month away and with absentee ballots being mailed out and returned and with early in-person voting starting on Tuesday, October 20, it’s definitely time for voters to be checking their sample ballots and getting informed about the candidates and issues, if they haven’t already. Wisconsin Family Action urges voters to visit myvote.wi.gov by clicking HERE to see their sample ballot and to get information on polling places, clerk’s office hours and more. Other election-related information is on our NEW election website Vote Right Wisconsin. Everything you need to know is just ONE CLICK away!.
Many are asking about referenda on their ballots. To clarify, there is no statewide referendum this election. All referenda this cycle are put on by local units of government. Many are just advisory, although those who put them on want to make it seem as if they actually make someone do something. They don’t. CLICK HERE for more information on this issue.
If you have any questions about the elections (ballots, referenda, how to find your polling place, etc.), click HERE for answers on Vote Right Wisconsin or call our office at 608-268-5074 (Madison) or 866-849-2536 (toll free).  THIS JUST IN!! Our online voterguide is now available! Click HERE to see your WI ballot with candidates rated from very conservative to very liberal and all points in between. Share this helpful voter guide far and wide! Be an informed voter and help others be the same!
Is America Beyond Hope?
We encourage you to watch Jim Scudder, Jr. on InGrace as he interviews Congressman Gary Palmer (R-Alabama) at the Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C. The two cover a wide range of topics about the upcoming election and encourage all Americans to VOTE!
