Dear Mark:
Thank you for contacting me regarding the Trump Administration. It is important that Wisconsinites remain engaged, and I appreciate the time you have taken to contact me.
I have received many messages and letters from Wisconsinites who are angry, afraid and fearful following the President’s recent actions, and I understand your concerns.
Our nation's founders created a system of checks and balances, providing for congressional oversight as a fundamental part of ensuring equal branches of government. I took an oath of office to uphold the Constitution, and I take that sacred pledge very seriously. The President and Vice President of the United States also take an oath of office, swearing to "...preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States." This commitment, and obligation, is so fundamental to our democracy that our nation's founders proscribed that oath in our Constitution.
Article II, Section 4 of our Constitution clearly delineates that the removal of the president and vice president for, is for among other things, "high crimes and misdemeanors." Impeachment is the ultimate power that Congress has to prevent and punish abuse of power from the Executive and Judicial branches.
Like you, I’m deeply concerned by the President’s actions that fail to help move our country forward. I believe many of these efforts are misguided and distract us from the important work of addressing the problems facing individuals and families in Wisconsin.
Make no mistake, I will stand against any policy that is not in the best interest of our state. I firmly believe the American people deserve to have politics with less vitriol, less division, less hatred and no lies. I will always fight for Wisconsin, and I will stand up to any President that does not have Wisconsin’s best interests at heart.
Please know that I will continue to support our shared priorities of building a more just nation that provides everyone with a fair shot to get ahead.Once again, thank you for contacting my office. It is important for me to hear from the people of Wisconsin on the issues, thoughts and concerns that matter most to you. If I can be of further assistance, please visit my website at www.baldwin.senate.gov for information on how to contact my office.
Sincerely, 
Tammy Baldwin
United States Senator
