Friends,
We hope you are having a very blessed Holy Week with your families. As we mentioned in our email on Wednesday, we were proud to launch our 11th Freedom Caucus this week in Louisiana. Our network is growing every single day and we are taking the fight to swampy state capitols all over America.
Our work is also starting to get noticed more by big name players in conservative media. After announcing the launch of the LAFC, myself and our communications director, Greg Price, made an appearance on War Room with Steve Bannon to talk about our plans to bring Freedom Caucuses everywhere.

We’re only getting started 💪
Meanwhile, Republican leadership on the same night was having an event of their own with former Florida governor and failed presidential candidate Jeb Bush. It featured the SC House GOP leaders giving him a standing ovation.
To that we say, “Choose your fighters, South Carolina.”
Wyoming:
Remember last week how we mentioned the tweet posted by Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs’ now former press secretary in which she called for shooting people who oppose the Democratic Party’s disgusting support of child sex changes? Well, we had another call for violence from a prominent Democrat this week in Wyoming.
Democrat WY House Rep. and Minority Leader Karlee Provenza sent out this disgusting post on her Facebook page in which “Auntie Fa” says to “protect trans folks against fascists & bigots” along with a picture of a woman pointing a rifle.
This led to immediate condemnations from the WYFC and calls to strip Provenza of her committee positions. Even in Wyoming, Democrats are calling for violence against people who disagree with their agenda of sexualizing kids.
Montana:
MTFC member Rep. Jed Hinkle introduced a very exciting bill in the Montana legislature this week. HB 450 is being called the “Fight Back” bill and would provide legal protections for children being bullied in schools to use reasonable force to fight back against their attackers.
Rep. Hinkle spoke to Fox News about the bill and the Helena resident, whose 16-year-old son had been relentlessly bullied since 3rd grade, who inspired it.
“It’s an inherent right that we all have to defend ourselves. And that should not be stripped away just because a student is in school versus outside of the school,” Hinkle said.
Illinois:
Illinois may be a deep blue state but that doesn’t stop the ILFC from fighting for accountable government in Springfield. This week, the caucus filed an ethics complaint after they discovered several Democratic members of the legislature were voting on bills while being completely absent from the Capitol.
“We need a more ethical, transparent and accountable government, which is why we are exploring an ethics complaint with the Legislative Inspector General. The abuse of power must come to an end,” their statement on the complaint read.
