Resolution Condemning Views Expressed by Blogger Nick Fuentes

The Wisconsin Conservative Coalition (WCC) and its member organizations -- Northeast Wisconsin Patriots, Fox Valley Initiative, and Wolf River Area Patriots -- unequivocally condemn antisemitism, racism, Nazism, and misogyny. We particularly condemn the views expressed recently by Nick Fuentes, a blogger who is false labeled a "conservative" thinker. He is not a spokesperson for our ideas and we will not stand by silently while he spreads hateful and divisive rhetoric in the name of our movement.

The mission of WCC is to help bring about an educated, constitutional, and conservative electorate and culture in Wisconsin. We believe:

The Constitution means what it says and is not a "living document."
The Constitution can be changed only by the methods described in the Constitution, as has been done 27 times in the past.
The federal government has limited, defined responsibilities and powers. All powers not enumerated in the Constitution are reserved for the states or the people.

See our website at www.wi-cc.com for a calendar of upcoming events, scorecards prepared by WCC as well as other conservative groups, and links to voter information, allies, and research and commentary on important issues.

Resolution on the September 10, 2025 Assassination of Charlie Kirk

The Wisconsin Conservative Coalition (WCC) has released its 2023-2024 Legislator Scorecard.

The Wisconsin Conservative Coalition (WCC) expresses its shock and deep regret over the news today of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, founder and president of Turning Point USA, during a presentation at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah. Charlie was one of the country’s leading spokespersons for individual liberty, limited government, and conservative values. We unequivocally condemn the use of violence to suppress free speech. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Charlie’s wife and children, the staff of Turning Point USA, and to the millions of people in the United States and around the world who knew Charlie through his many recorded presentations.
