History
The organization gained momentum during December 2016 with growing opposition against a potential plan by St. Patrick Church to resettle Syrian refugees in Hudson, Wisconsin. This led to the organization officially being formed in January 2017, with a support base within Hudson and New Richmond, Wisconsin. In 2018, it was reported that the Southern Poverty Law Center added the organization to a list of hate groups for a period of time before being removed.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
