Sen. Tammy Baldwin repays taxpayer-funded November 2020 NYC trip to see partner
Fox News
Wisconsin Democrat Sen. Tammy Baldwin repaid a taxpayer-funded trip to visit her partner in New York City in November 2020 after being asked about it by the press.
The payment came, however, after the senator was asked about it by the outlet. Baldwin staffers told the Journal-Sentinel that the trip was erroneously marked as official travel.

Baldwin's office said the senator made the federal reimbursement "out of an abundance of caution," without being asked. "Tammy Baldwin goes above and beyond to ensure her office is in compliance with ethics policies, including as it relates to her travel," Baldwin spokesperson Andrew Mamo told the Journal-Sentinel.
