Tammy Baldwin here — I wanted to make sure you saw this message from
Elissa Slotkin. Elissa is running in Michigan to defend our Democratic
majority, so I hope you'll read her message and [ [link removed] ]chip in if you can.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
I want to
share a story about someone who, more than anyone, taught me the
importance of listening and accountability.
It’s Barack Obama.
[ [link removed] ]Barack Obama and Elissa Slotkin
I was in the White House the first day he took office in 2009, serving as
a part of his national security staff. I staffed his meetings in the
Situation Room and briefed him in the Oval Office. Later, I was honored to
be nominated by him to serve in the Pentagon.
Despite his effortless charm in public, President Obama was a very tough
boss. I don’t think I’ve ever had a tougher boss than President Obama.
He’s brilliant, and he’s got a lawyer’s training where he’ll grill you
with difficult questions, one after another.
I learned pretty quickly to be prepared, because he was going to make sure
you knew your stuff.
What’s more, he was going to hold you accountable to what you said. If you
told him a fact or a plan, you’d better deliver on it. If you didn’t know
something, you should say that and not try to fudge your way through it.
That’s exactly the approach I try to take in Congress. I try my best to
know the details, make thoughtful decisions, and be transparent about what
I know and don’t know. Because I’ll never forget the lesson President
Obama taught me: you better say what you mean, and mean what you say.
[ [link removed] ]That’s the kind of Senator I’ll be. And I’m building a grassroots
movement in that same spirit to bring accountability to the U.S. Senate.
With that in mind, will you chip in $10 to Tammy Baldwin and my campaign
to help us get there?
