NRA Political Victory Fund Endorses Brad Schimel for Election to the Wisconsin Supreme Court

The National Rifle Association of America Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) is proud to announce its endorsement of Brad Schimel for his election to the Wisconsin Supreme Court. As Attorney General of Wisconsin, Mr. Schimel received an “A+” rating, the highest grade possible, for his unwavering defense of the individual right to keep and bear arms.

This endorsement is a recognition of Mr. Schimel’s steadfast support and demonstrated leadership on Second Amendment issues, protecting the rights of Wisconsinites to defend themselves and their families, during his tenure in public office.

“Brad Schimel is an ardent supporter of the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding gun owners and sportsmen in Wisconsin,” said John Commerford, NRA-PVF Chairman. “As Attorney General, he consistently and continuously defended Constitutional freedoms, especially the individual right to keep and bear arms. The Second Amendment rights of Wisconsinites will be protected with Brad Schimel on the Wisconsin Supreme Court.”

This year’s Wisconsin Supreme Court election will determine the balance of power on the court and dictate the future of cherished rights and traditions in Wisconsin. At stake is a litany of pro-gun and pro-hunting laws including the right to carry and the ability of an individual to defend themselves and their family in their home.

“The Wisconsin State Constitution states that, 'The people have the right to keep and bear arms for security, defense, hunting, recreation, or any lawful purpose',” continued Commerford. “Brad Schimel has demonstrated his respect for that provision of the state constitution and is the best candidate for the highest court in Wisconsin to uphold the Second Amendment rights of peaceable gun owners.”

The National Rifle Association urges all of its dedicated members and Second Amendment proponents in Wisconsin to rally behind Brad Schimel in the 2025 Wisconsin Supreme Court election on April 1, 2025, ensuring that constitutionally protected rights continue to thrive in the Badger State.
