Evidence

The official Senate legislation page lists Baldwin as the sponsor of S.4451, updated 2026-04-30, and describes it as a bill to support federal, state, and Tribal coordination and management efforts on wildlife disease and zoonotic disease surveillance and outbreaks.

Baldwin introduced the exact kind of wildlife-disease coordination bill described in the claim.

Baldwin urged immediate action on the ongoing HPAI outbreak, said the disease continues to devastate poultry flocks and dairy herds, and called for strong agency coordination; the release also notes migrating wild birds continue to infect domestic flocks and cattle.

Within the lookback window, Baldwin publicly pressed for a coordinated response to avian flu involving wildlife-to-livestock spillover.

The promise was to introduce and support legislation on wildlife-disease and zoonotic-disease coordination, not necessarily to enact it. The evidence shows Baldwin sponsored S.4451, a bill specifically aimed at improving federal, state, and Tribal coordination and management on wildlife disease surveillance and outbreaks, which closely matches the claim. Separate public advocacy on avian flu coordination further supports that she also backed the policy goal during the same Senate term.
