City of Appleton ALERT
Ban on so-called "transgender therapy" for minors usurps parental authority

The City of Appleton could become the next Wisconsin city to enact a ban on so-called “conversion therapy” for minors. The Board of Health is scheduled to vote on the proposal next Tuesday. Similar to such ordinances in other communities, this policy makes it illegal for counselors, who in some way take a fee, to tell minors struggling with unwanted same-sex attraction or gender confusion that there is truly real help and real hope and that going down those paths is not God’s best plan for them. What constitutes a fee is unclear legally.
READ MORE HERE

URGENT! If you live in the City of Appleton, please call your city alderperson today about this dangerous ban TODAY. Contact information may be found HERE.

Christmas Comes to the Capitol!
 

Each year for the past 24 years, Wisconsin Family Council (WFC), the educational arm of Wisconsin Family Action (WFA), has displayed a Merry Christmas sign in the State Capitol Rotunda. The sign not only wishes everyone a Merry Christmas, but reminds viewers of the real reason for the season—Jesus Christ, mankind’s Savior.

Last Friday Wisconsin Family Council once again put up the sign in the capitol, while Wisconsin Family Action placed an accompanying nativity display.

“Thousands of visitors come to our beautiful state capitol during the holiday season to enjoy the gorgeous state Christmas tree with all the handmade ornaments. We are honored to be able to exercise our religious freedom and have our display in the rotunda as a silent but powerful witness to the truth of Christmas and to offer hope to all those who see it,” remarks Julaine Appling, president of WFA and WFC.

Because of YOU! "Choose Life" WI License Plate Raises $19,000
 

This week, $19,000 raised from the sale of "Choose Life" Wisconsin license plates is being distributed to ten Wisconsin pregnancy resource centers ranging from Menominee to Madison to Milwaukee, and to points in between. This is the fourth distribution of funds from the sale of these plates since they went on sale in late October 2017. 

Including this current grant cycle, over $65,000 has been distributed to over 20 different pregnancy care centers that are dedicated to helping women in crisis pregnancies make life-saving choices.

WFA president Julaine Appling states, "We are honored to partner with Pro-Life Wisconsin in overseeing Choose Life Wisconsin. Our organizations cover all the overhead costs for Choose Life so that every penny raised from the sale of these plates goes to awesome pregnancy care centers in our state."

VIEW slide show of recipients HERE.

For information on these life-affirming plates, click HERE.

The American Family Association in Mississippi has published their annual “Naughty or Nice” list.

The list identifies companies that are “Christmas-friendly” in their advertising.

Retailers who use the word “Christmas” in advertising Christmas trees and Christmas decorations earn a positive rating while companies that use generic terms like “the holidays” or “holiday decorations” earn a negative rating.

AFA divides companies into three categories: Nice, Marginal, and Naughty. CLICK HERE to find out "who's who" in each category before you invest your hard-earned money on gifts for Christmas.

Wisconsin Family Action works to strengthen, preserve and promote marriage, family, life and religious liberty in your community, in the legislature, in the state and beyond! Click HERE to securely partner today with us TODAY.
