CFFE PAC Ran a $687,950 Independent Expenditure Program and Knocked 781,449 Voters’ Doors in Wisconsin in Support of Baldwin, Emphasizing her Support of Child Care, Paid Leave, and Elder Care
November 7, 2024
WASHINGTON – Voters across Wisconsin have re-elected Tammy Baldwin to the U.S. Senate. Senator Baldwin ran on her commitment to tackling the challenges Wisconsin families and caregivers face. She emphasized her proven track record of delivering relief for parents and child care providers, prioritizing affordable and high-quality elder care, and advocating for paid leave.
CFFE PAC proudly endorsed Baldwin earlier this year and knocked on 781,449 Wisconsinites’ doors in Waukesha, Ozaukee, and Suburban Milwaukee counties, speaking with 61,697 voters about her commitment to passing policies that lower the cost of caregiving.
Senator Baldwin ran a campaign that acknowledged the struggles working families face when it comes to the high cost of caregiving and as her re-election fight heated up, she backed up her campaign pledges with policy action. In Washington, she championed legislation to expand affordable child care and lower prescription drug costs. Now more than ever, we will need her in the Senate to continue to fight for paid family and medical leave, federal investment in child care and care for the aging and disabled, and lower prescription drug costs.
By choosing Baldwin as their next senator, Wisconsin voters rejected out-of-state and out-of-touch Eric Hovde, sending a clear message that they want leaders who understand their challenges and have a plan to provide the tools and opportunities for all of us to thrive.
“Wisconsinites are sending a true champion in Senator Baldwin back to Washington, where her work fighting for real solutions will be needed more than ever,” said Sondra Goldschein, Executive Director of CFFE PAC. “Senator Baldwin has the most ambitious plan to address the caregiving crisis with a proven track record, and CFFE PAC is proud to have made that message clear at voters’ doors. In choosing Senator Baldwin to continue representing them in Washington, Wisconsin voters sent a strong message that they want their leaders to deliver tangible solutions to today’s caregiving crisis.”
CFFE PAC and the Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy ran one of the country’s largest field operations this cycle, talking to voters in battleground states like Wisconsin about Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, Tammy Baldwin, and other Democrats in key races. Through robust door-to-door field and relational organizing programs, and paid advertising, CFFE PAC amplified Democrats’ plans to address top-of-mind issues and make lowering the cost of caregiving a core focus of races nationwide.

The Campaign for a Family Friendly Economy PAC (CFFE PAC) is fighting for a future where all people can afford to care for themselves and their loved ones. In the 2024 election cycle, CFFE PAC ran its largest-ever program communicating with voters in Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, Ohio, and Montana about where candidates stand on policies that ensure paid family and medical leave, provide affordable elder and child care, and lower the cost of prescription drugs. In 2022, CFFE PAC ran a $13.5 million program that delivered that message in four battleground states, and in 2020, CFFE PAC spent almost $18 million on a program in support of Joe Biden and U.S. Senate candidates that spanned Wisconsin, Michigan, Maine, Iowa, Montana, Virginia, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Florida and Georgia.
