Community Advocates Public Policy Institute Applauds Senator Tammy
Community Advocates Public Policy Institute Applauds Senator Tammy Baldwin’s Efforts to Spur Hiring and Reduce Child Poverty: Bills Would Support Six Months of Wages Immediately and Set National Goal of Cutting Child Poverty in Half in the Next Decade For immediate release: July 10, 2020 Media contact: Lisa Kaiser, [email protected] Milwaukee—Community Advocates Public Policy Institute applauds two pieces of legislation introduced by Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) that would immediately address unemployment related to COVID-19 and lift families out of poverty in the long term. Baldwin’s Jobs for Economic Recovery Act of 2020 would immediately expand subsidized Transitional Jobs programs and finance six months of wages for unemployed workers to meet the needs of employers and workers suffering because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Her Child Poverty Reduction Act of 2020 sets the national goal of cutting child poverty in half in the next decade, and sets up a framework of accountability for measuring and meeting the goal. The Jobs for Economic Recovery Act would immediately pay for state, tribal, and local subsidized employment programs. Amending the Social Security Act, it would finance six months of wages and payroll taxes for public, private, or nonprofit jobs. Funds could also be used for job training and child care. Baldwin is leading this effort with Senate Finance Committee Ranking Member Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Senators Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Michael Bennet (D-CO), and Cory Booker (D-NJ). Transitional Jobs, when combined with other work-based supports, are a proven tool to reduce all poverty, including child poverty.

April 15, 2021 The Honorable Deb Haaland Department of the Interior 1849 C Street, N.W. Washington DC 20240 Dear Secretary Haaland: We write in support of the Antiquities Act and the critical role it plays in protecting our nation’s most important and endangered places. Since 1906, sixteen presidents have used the Antiquities Act to protect places across our nation. From Chaco Canyon in New Mexico to Harriet Tubman’s house in Maryland, the Antiquities Act has long protected key landscapes and historical sites. National monuments protect our most precious natural, cultural, and historical resources, and threats to the integrity of any monuments established under the Antiquities Act threaten the protection of all monuments. During your confirmation process, you committed to undertaking a thorough review of the Antiquities Act proclamations of the previous Administration. Former President Trump illegally attempted to reduce the protections provided by proclamations that previous presidents issued. We urge you to defend the Antiquities Act and recommend that President Biden review President Trump’s actions and undo any unlawful attacks on the Antiquities Act. We thank you for your commitment to the conservation of our nation’s most important places and history. Sincerely, _______________________________/s/ Martin Heinrich _______________________________/s/ Ben Ray Luján Martin Heinrich Ben Ray Luján United States Senator United States Senator _______________________________/s/ RichardTammy BaldwinJ.

April 27, 2021 The Honorable Patrick Leahy, Chairman The Honorable Richard Shelby, Ranking Member Senate Appropriations Committee Senate Appropriations Committee S-146A The Capitol S-128 The Capitol Washington, DC 20515 Washington, DC 20515 CC: Chairwoman Tammy Baldwin, Chairwoman Patty Murray, Senator Roy Blunt, Senator John Hoeven Dear Chairman Leahy and Ranking Member Shelby, We understand the critical nature of addressing issues of food security and nutrition as drivers of health, economic, and social well-being, and deeply appreciate the actions Congress has taken thus far to address the unprecedented hunger crisis in the U.S. brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. As you consider your Fiscal Year 2022 priorities, the undersigned national organizations strongly urge the following recommendations as it relates to hunger in America: • Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC): $7 billion Increased investment is needed to enhance access to healthy foods through long-recognized, bipartisan eligibility expansions for postpartum women and 5-year-old children to kindergarten and pending USDA rulemaking to increase the value of the WIC benefit. This overall funding should be inclusive of annual set-aside priorities, including $90 million for breastfeeding peer counselors, $14 million for infrastructure and special project grants, and $35 million for technology and Management Information System (MIS) projects. ▪ WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program (FMNP): $35 million Since 1992, the WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program has strengthened connections between nutrition programs and agriculture by providing WIC families with a small annual benefit to redeem at local farmers markets or farm stands. After years of flat funding, the small increase in fiscal year 2021 allowed new states to start WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Programs.

March 23, 2017 The Honorable Tammy Baldwin The Honorable Shelley Moore Capito 709 Hart Senate Office Building 172 Russell Senate Office Building United States Senate United States Senate Washington, DC 20510 Washington, DC 20510 RE: Support for the Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act (PCHETA) Dear Senators Baldwin and Capito: The undersigned organizations write to express our support for S. 693, the Palliative Care and Hospice Education and Training Act (PCHETA). This bipartisan legislation will make a difference in the lives of millions of patients living with serious or life threatening illness and their caregivers. Despite a high intensity of medical treatment, many seriously ill individuals still experience troubling symptoms, unmet psychological and personal care needs, fragmented care, poor communication with their health care providers, and enormous strains on their family caregivers. However, numerous studies have shown that adding palliative care can improve pain and symptom control, quality of life, and patient and family satisfaction. Palliative care is an interdisciplinary model of care focused on relief of the pain, stress and other debilitating symptoms of serious illness, such as cancer, cardiac disease, respiratory disease, kidney failure, Alzheimer’s, AIDS, ALS, and MS. Its goal is to relieve suffering and provide the best possible quality of life for patients and their families. Palliative care can be offered simultaneously with life- prolonging and curative therapies for persons living with serious, complex, and eventually terminal illness and includes hospice care. By its very nature, palliative care is patient-centered care — translating patient goals to appropriate treatments. We appreciate your leadership in recognizing the significant role palliative care and hospice can play in creating lasting change across the health care system.

The DLT grant program assists rural and tribal communities in acquiring distance learning and telemedical technologies so that local teachers and medical service providers can connect to educators and medical professionals in other parts of the country. Since 1994, the DLT grant program has helped to establish hundreds of distance learning and telemedicine systems, improving the quality of life for thousands of residents in rural communities all across the United States. DLT specifically helps rural communities invest in telecommunications-enabled information, audio and visual equipment, and advanced technologies to assist its residents in accessing educational and health care services. Recipients have used the program to provide distance learning paramedic courses to first responders, improve access to specialty health education, and establish partnerships between rural high schools and community colleges. Recent DLT recipients have used the grants to help address opioid abuse treatment and mental health counseling in rural America. These educational and health services are vital.
