Scott Walker, Wisconsin's Evangelist-in-Chief

The current Government of Wisconsin's website takes you here:

The ultimate aim of Care Net and its network of pregnancy centers is to share the love and truth of Jesus Christ in both word and deed. As a result, the hearts of women and men are being changed by Christ's love.

Alabama of the North, indeed.

Vital Signs: Wisconsin state government website provides link to evangelical anti-abortion group


SHAWN DOHERTY | The Capital Times | sdoherty@madison.com | (36) Comments | Posted: Tuesday, July 26, 2011 6:00 pm


A new link on the state government website directs visitors seeking information about family services to a national anti-abortion evangelical organization, and the Freedom from Religion Foundation has sent Gov. Scott Walker a letter claiming that "such religious propaganda" is a violation of the separation of church and state.

After logging onto www.wisconsingov.com and clicking on "Health and Safety" and then "Family and Consumer Services" and finally "Family Services NEW!" a visitor ends up at a website for the Care Net Pregnancy Centers, which operates 1100 centers across the country aimed at persuading women not to have abortions.
..................

A July 14 letter sent to Gov. Scott Walker by Annie Laurie Gaylor, co-president of the FFRF, complains that "such religious propaganda has no place on a government website under health and safety."

2. WI resident here -- I HATE what has happened
to our once progressive state. This guy is SO bad news. I knew it before he got in, but he has proved to be even worse than I imagined.

Have already signed up for when recall initiatives become effective and contributed as well.

So now MY state taxes are going to support an anti-choice forced birth propaganda site?? Aargh.
