MADISON (WKOW) — Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) is supporting the nomination of fellow Wisconsinite Sean Duffy to be Transportation Secretary.
Duffy is a former Republican congressman who represented the state’s 7th Congressional District from 2011 through 2019.
“I look at all of the President’s nominees through the lens of ‘will you be good for Wisconsin,'” Baldwin said in a statement. “I’ve worked with Sean before to deliver for Wisconsin, and I plan to support his nomination because I am confident that we can work together to keep Wisconsin families safe and our economy moving forward.”
Baldwin said, while considering Duffy’s nomination, she thought about large infrastructure projects being planned. She said she believes it will be “critical” to have a Transportation Secretary who understands those projects’ importance.
