Tammy Baldwin
The Public Record
Tammy Baldwin is an American politician serving as the junior United States senator from Wisconsin since January 3, 2013. A member of the Democratic Party, she made history as the first openly LGBTQ+ person elected to the U.S. Senate. Baldwin previously served in the U.S. House of Representatives from January 6, 1999, to January 3, 2013, representing Wisconsin's 2nd congressional district. Throughout her career, she has focused on issues such as healthcare, education, and economic opportunity for all Americans.
If the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled on an issue, that is the law of the land, and I would enforce that law whatever it is.
I believe that if you work hard and you play by the rules, you ought to be able to have the opportunity to get ahead.
Workplace harassment remains an unacceptable reality that threatens the safety and economic security of far too many people working to build a better future for themselves and their families.
I strongly support the EEOC's decisions that make it clear that Title VII's sex discrimination provisions are properly understood to prohibit discrimination based on both gender identity and sexual orientation.
And then I think on that topic, if you require disclosure of a political ad's sponsor, what sort of transparency will you be able to provide with regard to people who were not the subject of that ad seeing its content?

We have also learned that Russian actors using another platform Twitter similarly targeted Wisconsin with divisive content aimed at sowing division and dissent.

According to press reports, my home State of Wisconsin was a major target of Russian-bought ads on Facebook in the 2016 election.
Do you know whether Aleksandr Kogan sold any of the data he collected with anyone other than Cambridge Analytica?
If you believe that you had been hacked, do you believe you would have the duty to inform those who were impacted?
Unfortunately, including this legislation in the recently passed S. 2155 was not possible due to a number of procedural objections that could not be overcome. However, it is our understanding that the substance of our bill has the support…
I have championed bipartisan legislation with Senator John McCain, the Fair Drug Pricing Act, that holds drug companies accountable to basic transparency when they raise their prices.
It is important to strengthen and improve this Program to ensure it continues to fulfill its purpose.
I have long supported the 340B Program. It is critical for about 71 hospitals in my home State of Wisconsin.
We strongly support Senator Daines' 'Mitigating METH Act,' S. 2270, and Senator Baldwin's 'Opioid Response Enhancement Act,' S. 2437.
The legislation would provide an additional funding of $10 billion to states and Tribal Nations over five years for the State Targeted Opioid Response Grant.
By ensuring Tribes can receive federal funds directly, Congress would ensure that the funds reach Tribal communities experiencing desperate need of relief.
This bill would also make tribes and tribal organizations eligible for funding under the 21st Century Cures Act.
I urge you to address China's latest unfair trade practice swiftly, in order to provide a level playing field for Wisconsin paper manufacturers.
