Tammy Baldwin is running for reelection. Here's why.
On this week's episode of Wedge Issues, Jack spoke with Democratic U.S. Sen. Tammy Baldwin. Baldwin, who is gearing up to run for a third term in the U.S. Senate, has been a mainstay in Wisconsin politics for more than 25 years. And even though she doesn’t yet have a Republican challenger in 2024, she’s wasting no time getting back on the road in Wisconsin to meet with voters. Jack spoke with Baldwin last week at her campaign office in Madison about her work on the Respect for Marriage Act, what she learned from the 2022 midterm elections, why she’s seeking a third term in the Senate, and what’s to come over the next year and half.
