Wisconsin - Green Bay Town Hall

Hunters turnout before Opening Day to discuss God, Family & Hunting in Wisconsin
November 15, 2025 — Green Bay, Wisconsin
Hunters, conservationists, and outdoor enthusiasts packed Stadium View Bar & Grill Friday night for Hunter Nation’s Green Bay Town Hall featuring Congressman Tom Tiffany and Hunter Nation Founder Keith Mark — a powerful evening focused on protecting Wisconsin’s outdoor heritage and the traditional values that define America’s hunting community.
Hosted by the Hunter Nation Wisconsin Chapter, the event brought together hunters from across the state to discuss issues including wolf management, Wisconsin DNR policy, chronic wasting disease (CWD), and the growing need for hunters to become active participants in elections. It was an evening of fellowship, open discussion, and a reminder that hunters are not just keepers of tradition — they are a political and cultural force defending freedom itself.

A Call to Action for Wisconsin Hunters
In opening remarks, Keith Mark shared Hunter Nation’s mission to unite America’s hunters around the principles of God, Family, Country, and the Constitution.
Keith Mark delivered a powerful message about the mission ahead and the awakening happening among America’s hunters:
“The time has come, and Congressman Tiffany hit the nail right on the head. Do you want to know why we have a chance? Because finally, for the first time in a long, long time, the American hunter has said, ‘I’ve had enough.’”
He also reminded attendees that hunting is about more than the outdoors — it’s about preserving freedom itself.
“Americans that believe in God, family, country, the Constitution, and live this hunting lifestyle have woken up and we're going to take our country back. And I think Wisconsin has the chance in this next election cycle to make a large statement that you're going to take this state back.”

Congressman Tom Tiffany, a lifelong outdoorsman and strong ally of hunters in Congress, energized the audience with his update on efforts to return gray wolf management to the states through his Pet and Livestock Protection Act.
Rep. Tiffany emphasized that collaboration between hunters and policymakers is critical: “Somebody had a great idea here tonight… it’s something we’re going to take a look at in regards to getting accurate counts,” he said, referencing ongoing issues with DNR population estimates. He underscored his commitment to strong, science-based wildlife management, noting “If I get elected as Governor, we are going to manage the wolf population here in Wisconsin.”

Tiffany also addressed the importance of building a reliable hunter voting base: “And you know that some of those [hunters] were turning out and some of them were voting for the first time in a long time- if ever- because they were motivated. That's what we need to develop as we go forward every election, that they turn out. Because if hunters turn out, we win. And that's what we need to do in 2026.”
Grassroots Energy on Full Display
Chris Vaughan, Hunter Nation’s Wisconsin State Director, moderated a spirited Q&A and community discussion that ranged from state hunting regulations to election engagement. Vaughan noted that the energy in Green Bay reflects a growing statewide movement.
Vaughan also highlighted the organization’s growing impact both statewide and nationally. He noted the dramatic shift in hunter engagement over the past decade:
“Before Hunter Nation got involved, 50% of hunters did not vote. It’s a staggering number,” Vaughan said. “Since 2016, Hunter Nation has reached over 12 million
hunters throughout the country.” His remarks set the stage for a night defined by unity, accountability, and a shared commitment to reclaiming Wisconsin’s outdoor and political heritage.

Chris Vaughan, Wisconsin State Director of Hunter Nation
Chris started as a volunteer for Hunter Nation in 2020 where he conducted market research identifying new opportunities to grow Hunter Nation’s grassroots efforts. This work led to new client partnerships and coalitions fighting for, supporting, and educating our membership and legislators.
Chris witnessed firsthand the effects Wisconsin’s state government had on our hunting and fishing rights in 2020. During that year in Wisconsin alone, Hunter Nation fought and won cases for holding a wolf hunt, reopening hunters’ safety education courses and opening access for fishing business owners who were not allowed to operate, essentially closing fishing for many Wisconsin residents.
As an avid hunter and fisherman and a father to three boys, the interest in Hunter Nation turned to a passion to ensure they have the same rights and opportunities to live our outdoor heritage. Chris is now the Wisconsin State Director for Hunter Nation.
