WI Supreme Court Strikes Down Mask Mandate
The “Corrupt Politician’s Act”
Take our poll!
IN THE MEDIA
Spring Nonpartisan Election — THIS Tuesday, April 6, 2021
Elections are your opportunity to steward the government that God has given you by voting for the individuals you think would best protect your values and serve their constituents.
This Tuesday, April 6, is also a great time to take a friend to the polls.
In the 2020 presidential elections, one of our staff members was talking about getting her voter registration complete on time so much that her roommate started asking questions about elections and voting. A few weeks later they both went to the polls to vote — one for her very first time.
Your voice — your vote — is certainly important, but so is your example. Don’t take this lightly. Men and women in every generation have fought — some have died — for your freedom and right to vote. Go vote!
You can find your polling place and/or look over a sample ballot HERE. To view the State Superintendent of Public Education voter info publication CLICK HERE.
Wisconsin Supreme Court Strikes Down Statewide Mask Mandate
On Wednesday, March 31, 2021, the Wisconsin Supreme Court struck down Governor Tony Evers’ illegal statewide mask mandate.
WISN included this comment in its update, “The 4-3 ruling was issued in a 78-page decision Wednesday morning. Republican lawmakers filed suit in October on the mandate. They said the Governor did not have the authority to extend the state’s public health emergency beyond 60 days without approval from the legislature. The majority of justices agreed.” You can read more HERE.
Julaine Appling, Wisconsin Family Action President, gave this response, “This long-awaited decision by the state’s high court is encouraging. The rule of law must be respected, most especially in a crisis. The judicial branch has exercised its rightful authority to check the power of the executive branch. Governor Evers will now have to work within the lawful limits of his authority.”
Why H.R.1 Should Be Called “The Corrupt Politicians’ Act”
Speaker Nancy Pelosi introduced H.R.1/S.1, the so-called “For the People Act,” earlier this month. However, further investigation reveals that this bill is actually against the people and for corrupt politicians. This bill would federalize elections, pretty much removing states from the election process, and putting elections into the hands of already elected officials.
Heritage Action summarized this bill by saying, “The end goal of H.R.1/S.1 is clear — to enshrine into law dubious electoral practices that enable and encourage fraudulent behavior such as ballot harvesting, false voter registration, duplicate voting, and ineligible voting.”
This bill is in direct conflict with our nation’s founding principles that President Abraham Lincoln so eloquently summarized in his Gettysburg Address, “A government of the people, by the people and for the people” — not of, by, or for the current elected officials.
Providing you with current and value-driven information, updates and invitations are important to us. We’re in the process of creating some exciting and new things. As we do so, we would love to get your input. So we put together a five-question multiple-choice survey — that’s right, you don’t have to make up any of the answers; you just have to pick one.
If you could take three minutes of your time and let us know a little bit more about who you are and what’s important to you, we would greatly appreciate it!
