Recruit. Train. Elect.

Our mission as the Wisconsin Young Republicans (WIYR) is to promote the GOP, the Great Opportunity Party, as the viable path forward to more individual freedom and a chance to pursue your American Dream right here in Wisconsin.

Serving as the official chartered state federation of the Young Republican National Federation (YRNF), we provide our members 18-40 years of age a unique opportunity to meet government office holders, get involved in campaigns, and meet like-minded individuals to exchange ideas and build friendships that will last a lifetime.

Wisconsin Awarded 2021 Young Republican State Federation of the Year

Join other Young Republicans 18-40 years of age in the top State Federation in the nation. YRs in this state made over 3.2 million voter contacts to turnout Republicans in an incredible show of force. For all our efforts, we were nominated and awarded the “Big Cup” at the 2021 YRNF National Convention in Indy. We truly are leading the way NOW in the Republican Party!

As the premier gathering place of conservative young professionals in their 20s & 30s from various industries and backgrounds, we strive to provide new and current members with the ability to network with like-minded individuals, political knowledge, and an understanding of the issues of the day so we become more effective voters and members of our communities.

Our goal is to grow the number of active WIYR members who will continue to push positive results and build upon our proven track record of electing Republicans at the local, state, and national level. Join us today for just $20 to have a fun time, meet great people, and drive the change that will turn Wisconsin Red!
