Julaine Appling, CEO, Wisconsin Family Council
"First Freedoms Foundation and its general counsel Attorney Mike Dean are heroes. They are the ones Wisconsin Family Action looks to time and again when both offensive and defensive legal actions are necessary to strengthen and preserve marriage, family, life and liberty in Wisconsin. We are never disappointed in their willingness, their passion or their expertise."
Mark Block, Wisconsin State Director, Americans For Prosperity
"I am proud to support the work of First Freedoms Foundation and General Counsel Michael Dean. First Freedoms is Wisconsin's antidote to the ACLU. And while they're not a household name like the ACLU, they are fighting the good fight and in many cases winning. When they win, we all win."
Bob Dohnal, Founder, Wisconsin Conservative Leadership Coalition
"Mike Dean is simply irreplaceable. His efforts for freedom of the individual and property rights cannot be matched anywhere."
Brian Fraley, Executive Director, Wisconsin Institute for Leadership
"The folks at the First Freedoms Foundation are both the field generals and the foot soldiers of the Culture War here in the heartland.
"Through theier public interest litigation and educational programs they remain vigilant in protecting our historic civil liberties as originally set forth by our founding fathers and guaranteed by the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
"The First Freedoms Foundation is the premier defender of Liberty here in Wisconsin."
Mark Gundrum, State Representative and Concerned Parent
"First Freedoms is the front line defense for families in Wisconsin's courts. When DPI joined WEAC’s suit to close Wisconsin Virtual Academy, parents and children had no voice until general counsel Mike Dean intervened on their behalf. He exposed WEAC and DPI's pernicious argument that WIVA was illegal because parents were too involved in their children's education.
"First Freedoms consistently defends political free speech, religious liberty, economic and property rights, and the integrity of the family."
Chris Kliesmet, President, CRG Network
"As a citizen activist I am routinely faced with situations where the government attempts to deny basic rights or bluntly states, "If you don't like it sue us!" Mike Dean and the First Freedoms Foundation provide necessary elements to protect our freedoms; education so we know our rights and the ability to defend them in a court of law when necessary."
Owen B. Robinson, Blogger, Boots and Sabers
"First Freedoms is on the leading edge of the battle to preserve our civil rights in Wisconsin. Their efforts are vital to preserving and expanding our liberty."
James Wigderson, Blogger, Wigderson Library & Pub
"For those of you who don't know, the First Freedoms Foundation is an invaluable organization for the conservative movement in Wisconsin. From everything to educating the public about the proper role of the judiciary, to fighting for virtual schools, to defending free political speech, the First Freedoms Foundation has played an import role."
