I have really been concerned about my home State of Wisconsin and the way it has been holding back.
Tammy Baldwin
The Public Record
Tammy Baldwin is an American politician serving as the junior United States senator from Wisconsin since January 3, 2013.

Throughout her career, she has focused on issues such as healthcare, education, and economic opportunity for all Americans.
Those 200,000 people in Wisconsin deserve the certainty of knowing that quality and affordable care will be there for them.
Over 200,000 Wisconsinites could gain Medicaid coverage through the Affordable Care Act Medicaid expansion.
I am committed to bringing people together and working collaborative to make our Nation's new health law work for my home State of Wisconsin and other States.
I am very proud of the work we did in this committee to pass the Affordable Care Act because access to affordable health care is an essential pillar of middle-class economic security.
Implementation of the Affordable Care Act puts this Nation on a path to better health.
Accepting the Medicaid expansion is a good deal for States because it is a boon to the States' uninsured and its taxpayers.
The Affordable Care Act is the law of the land, and it is now time for all of us to come together and put politics aside and make American's new health law work for the American people.
It is immoral to allow our fellow Americans to suffer because they can't access health insurance.
Implementation is going to move forward and the landmark health care law will continue to have a positive effect on millions of people's lives.
