We can't let baseless lies and intimidation tactics from the Trump Administration stop folks from casting their ballots. That’s why I’m on the ground talking to the election officials who work hard to keep Wisconsin elections safe and secure. www.news8000.com/video/baldwi...

$43 billion in taxpayer money could have been spent on making childcare more affordable or helping families afford their health care, but instead, the president chose to spend your money on another war in the Middle East.

I’ve been meeting with election workers across Wisconsin who keep our elections safe, fair, and free — including the Clerks here in La Crosse. We had a great conversation about what they are doing to make sure Wisconsinites’ votes are counted and your voices are heard.

The cost of housing is crushing our families. And instead of helping Wisconsinites afford the roof over their heads, the Trump Administration is choosing to slash resources that help families in our rural communities afford a home.

Americans' health and well-being must come before the president’s political agenda. That means taxpayer funds should be spent on what experts think is the best bet for medical breakthroughs, not spent on pet projects for Trump and his loyalists. I will keep fighting these threats to your healthcare.

When towns and cities spend more on gas for garbage trucks, fire trucks, and snowplows, they have to make cuts elsewhere. Wisconsinites want their tax dollars going to public safety, schools, and parks – not higher gas prices from Trump’s war in Iran. www.wpr.org/news/wiscons...

Wisconsin’s municipalities feeling the pinch of high fuel costs
With diesel and gasoline roughly doubling in cost since last year, many Wisconsin municipalities are over budget and facing tough choices for their 2027 budgets.

Working families want affordable health care and lower gas prices, not this.

Wisconsin elections are safe and secure because of our local election officials on the ground. While the president continues to undermine their work and avoid accountability, I met with folks in Green Bay who are working hard to make sure Wisconsinites’ voices are heard.

My job is to look out for our farmers and work to give them a fair shot. They are being robbed of that opportunity with these high diesel costs because of the President’s war in Iran, and it’s got to end now. captimes.com/news/governm...

Wisconsin farmers bear brunt of high gas prices, Sen. Baldwin says
Sen. Tammy Baldwin called for an end to the Iran war during a tour of a Dane County farm last week. Wisconsin diesel prices are up nearly 90% since 2025.

Our farmers didn’t ask for higher diesel costs and an expensive trade war, but that’s what President Trump delivered.

Our farmers work harder than just about anyone I know, but the president’s war in the Middle East is only making things harder for our family farms. Today, I visited Generations Beef here in Mt. Horeb to talk about how this chaos is impacting their operations.

It’s been over a year since the Trump Administration chose to shut down 988’s Press 3 option for LGBTQ+ youth in crisis. I wrote a law requiring them to restore it. I’m glad this lifesaving help is back, but these political games are putting lives at risk. www.wbay.com/2026/09/30/s...

What do Trump’s luxury ballroom, Trump’s vanity arch, and Trump’s war in Iran all have in common? They’re all being paid for by YOU, the taxpayer.

Today, 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline’s “Press 3” option to help LGBTQ children is back up and running. The Trump administration never should have taken this lifesaving help away in the first place.

Yesterday, I forced a Senate vote to prevent 2 million Americans from having their health care terminated and millions of others from having their health care costs jacked up. Republicans killed it.

You would think the president would be using taxpayer dollars to make families’ lives more affordable, but no. He’s using your money for his campaign ads instead. This isn’t just insane—it’s flat-out illegal. time.com/article/2026...

Trump's Taxpayer-Funded Ads Draw Bipartisan Criticism

Farmers who have worked hard and played by the rules are now on the verge of financial collapse because the war in Iran is squeezing them on all sides. It doesn’t have to be like this — the president is choosing for it to be like this.

This administration hasn’t got their way to totally shut down the Department of Education, so instead, they are throwing sand in the gears and making life harder for schools. Make no mistake, this will have real consequences for our families and schools. www.npr.org/2026/09/24/n...

The Education Dept. hasn't been dismantled. It's become more inefficient, staff say
Education staff are being scattered across several other federal agencies. Despite the Trump administration's claims, employees say it's adding bureaucracy and making it harder to serve students.

Today marks 7 months of Trump’s war in Iran. That’s 7 months of Republicans choosing to raise your gas prices.

Senator Tammy Baldwin @baldwin.senate.gov · 27/09/2026
If Republicans were serious about bringing an end to Trump’s war in Iran, they would have joined me this week in voting to end it. Instead, they chose to let this war continue and jack up your costs.

Not a penny of your tax dollars should be going toward sending ICE agents or the National Guard to our election sites.

It was an honor to help welcome home 76 members of the 121st Field Artillery Regiment. They answered the call to serve our country and I’m so grateful they are back safely with their families. Welcome home.

Working families never wanted this war, but they are the ones paying for it.

Families are being crushed by the high cost of just about everything. They don’t need billion-dollar companies squeezing more money out of them just to watch their home teams play.

We cannot allow President Trump to put ICE agents between Americans and their constitutional right to vote. I’m doing everything I can to make sure that doesn’t happen.

Collaboration at all levels of government is how we deliver for the people we work for. That's why I'm grateful for partners like Milwaukee Mayor Johnson. Great to see him today to talk about our work to lower housing costs and keep Milwaukee a great place to live and work.

The President is openly talking about sending armed troops to our polling places. This is not about safety; it is about trying to intimidate voters and tip the scales in the midterm elections. My new bill would stop him in his tracks. www.jsonline.com/story/news/p...

Spreading baseless lies and threatening to send ICE to our election sites won’t make our elections any safer — it will just intimidate eligible voters from voting. The President’s efforts to meddle and intimidate voters need to stop now.

Republicans’ war in Iran has been a double whammy for our farmers. Not only is it more expensive for them to run their machinery and grow crops, but getting those crops to market is costing more too. They need relief from this chaos. www.jsonline.com/story/news/l...

15 years ago, we told our service members they can live their lives as their true, authentic selves when we ended the discriminatory Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy. Today reminds us of what’s possible when we don’t let our differences divide us but instead unite us.

The president has already tried to cut staff and funding from research to find cures for cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, and other illnesses. The last thing we need is him to inject more of his politics into this work and slow down these scientists even more. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Trump’s effort to stop Americans from voting by mail – despite many Wisconsinites already receiving their ballots – is unconstitutional, plain and simple. The Supreme Court needs to protect Americans’ right to vote and tell the president no. apnews.com/article/trum...

Deploying federal agents to local polling places won’t make our elections any safer. But what it will do is cause chaos and stop eligible voters from casting their ballots. We can’t let that happen.

These last few weeks, I’ve traveled to every corner of Wisconsin and heard how Donald Trump’s chaotic tariffs and war in Iran have made it harder for small businesses to make ends meet. It’s clear they need relief, now.
