Baldwin Calls out NFL’s Poor Scheduling that Leaves Packers Fans High and Dry, and Reintroduces Go Pack Go Act

WASHINGTON, D.C. (U.S. SENATOR TAMMY BALDWIN PRESS RELEASE) - Today, U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) re-introduced her Go Pack Go Act, legislation to ensure all Wisconsinites can watch Green Bay Packers game broadcasts. Baldwin’s Go Pack Go Act requires cable and satellite providers to provide their Wisconsin subscribers with access to programming from broadcast television stations in a Wisconsin media market.

Senator Baldwin also called on the National Football League (NFL) to take better care of Packers fans when scheduling games and help ensure they are able to watch the Green and Gold. The ask of the NFL comes as the Green Bay Packers, Minnesota Vikings, and Detroit Lions are all scheduled to play at the same time this weekend, leaving Packers fans in Western and Northern Wisconsin in jeopardy of being unable to access the Packers broadcast.
