Will the media ask Tammy Baldwin about her no vote?
Baldwin Voted “NO” To Honoring 9/11 Victims

brian@mediatrackers.orgMILWAUKEE – As Americans pause today to mark the 11th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks Wisconsin residents should be reminded of Rep. Tammy Baldwin’s opposition to a resolution honoring 9/11 victims. Baldwin, a Democrat running for U.S. Senate, has repeatedly touted the “Wisconsin I know” in her bid to show voters that she truly reflects Wisconsin values. In her vote against H. Res. 994, an overwhelming bi-partisan resolution that remembered the tragedy and memorialized the victims of the horrendous attacks, she was the only Wisconsin member of Congress to cast a “No” vote.
“The 9/11 attacks were a tragedy that affected all Americans – irrespective of party affiliation – and brought us together as a nation,” said Brian Sikma, communications director for Media Trackers. “It is stunning that Rep. Baldwin would not want to honor 9/11 victims and their families.”

What reason could Baldwin have to vote no to honor the victims of 911? Seems important to the voters of Wisconsin this coming November.
