       Wisconsin at War

	Wisconsin Christians United announced today the opening of its new
political campaign, 'Project Resist and Restore". The project was made
public on WVCY, the Milwaukee television station operated by Wisconsin
Voice of Christian Youth. Mr.  Ralph Ovadal, a resident of Monroe,
Wisconsin and head of WCU, was interviewed by WVCY head Rev. Vic Eliason
on his nationally broadcast call-in show, Crosstalk.

	Wisconsin Christians United is centered at Mr. Ovadal's address,
W6908 Highway 81, Monroe, WI 53566, but has organizational presence in
about 12 Wisconsin localities, according to him.

	The new project aims to "Resist the homosexual agenda and Restore
decency and sanity to our public policy here in Wisconsin and to our
governing institutions", according to Mr.  Ovadal.

	Mr. Ovadal appealed for funds to carry on an effort centered on
the pastors of Wisconsin churches: "The key of course is always the
pastors....We want to ultimately hold a press conference on the steps of
the capitol with all the pastors we can get and take a stand for
righteousness."

	Project Resist and Restore plans a number of steps in its newly
declared war on homosexuals:

  *   Collect enough money to buy and distribute a video exposing the
		homosexual agenda to several hundred pastors.

  *   Develop a newspaper type publication exposing homosexuality and
		use it in a literature drop campaign across the state.

  *   Introduce legislation which would remove all sexual orientation
		language from the state statutes.

	Mr. Ovadal says his group feels very strongly that gays are not
entitled to full civil rights: "I'm here today to say I am against certain
civil rights for homosexuals. I say that unabashedly."

	And Vic Eliason strongly endorses the group and its opinions:
"Folks, it's exciting to know people heading in a direction:  they know
where they're headed, they know what they want to do, and they need people
to help them do it."

	It looks as if Wisconsin will have a hot summer.
