The FFRF Action Fund today announced a new investment in Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin’s 2026 electoral program.
This extends a partnership that has delivered back-to-back statewide victories into the fight for control of the Wisconsin Legislature and the U.S. Congress this November, supporting Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin’s field programs across the state.
The partnership builds on a record of results. In April 2025, the FFRF Action Fund and Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin mobilized secular and pro-reproductive-rights voters to help elect Susan Crawford to the Wisconsin Supreme Court, protecting the court’s majority in what became the most expensive judicial race in the nation’s history. The two organizations renewed the partnership in April 2026 to help expand that majority with the election of Chris Taylor. Along the way, they joined forces against the GOP reconciliation bill that threatened to strip Medicaid funding from Planned Parenthood and steer public dollars toward religious schools.
“Every time we have stood with Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin, secular voters have shown up and won,” says Annie Laurie Gaylor, president of the FFRF Action Fund. “The people who defend reproductive freedom are the same people who defend the separation of state and church. This November, we are taking that coalition into the districts that will determine who controls the Legislature, and we intend to win there too.”
Marie Stolzenburg, director of organizing for Planned Parenthood Advocates of Wisconsin, agrees.
“Our organizing works because we reach voters year-round, in every corner of the state, on the freedoms they care about most,” she says. “Partnering with the FFRF Action Fund lets us reach further into Wisconsin and knock more doors in the districts that will decide the majority. We are proud to build on what we accomplished together in 2025 and 2026.”
Stolzenburg adds, “Elections have real consequences for women in Wisconsin. What’s at stake is our ability to get the care we need and make our own health care decisions without political interference. We’re excited to talk with voters about why this moment matters so deeply. As we’ve heard again and again at the doors, Wisconsin voters want to know who supports Planned Parenthood and their freedoms. We look forward to having those conversations and making sure people understand what’s at stake and which candidates are committed to protecting their rights.”
