WASHINGTON, March 4 -- Sen. Tammy Baldwin issued the following press release:
Today, U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) announced her opposition to Brad Schimel continuing to serve as interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin after his 120-day temporary appointment expires in two weeks. While U.S. Attorney positions require Senate-approval, President Trump installed Schimel to be the interim U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Wisconsin. Interim appointments are limited to only 120 days; however, the Trump administration has tried to skirt this law to keep other interim U.S. Attorneys, who are ardent supporters of the President, in place longer.
