Tammy Baldwin: “I believe that there's tremendous value in consumers having access to relevant local news and programing.”

That's why I am proud to bring home this investment that will give truck drivers more safe places to rest, help prevent accidents that clog up our highways and put folks in harm’s way, and make our roads safer for everyone who uses them.

But when aging infrastructure causes delays and disruptions, it hurts our businesses, costs them time and money, and makes it harder for them to compete.

Expanding passenger rail means more safe, easy ways to get to and from work or school, more tourists coming into our communities and buying things in our shops, and more good-paying jobs across our state.

But when truck drivers can't find a safe place to pull over and rest, it puts them and everyone else on the road at risk.
