Sen. Tammy Baldwin is asking President-elect Donald Trump to work with her on bolstering Wall Street oversight, pointing to comments he made on the campaign trail about the financial industry.

The Wisconsin Democrat sent a letter to Trump on Tuesday urging him to consider legislation she proposed last year and to "appoint strong, independent-minded staff to police the financial sector" under his administration.

"I believe that the rules of our economy have been rigged by special interests to benefit those at the top at the expense of working Americans," Baldwin wrote. "I look forward to working with you to eliminate the influence of the revolving door in our government and rewriting the rules of our economy so that we can build prosperity for everyone, not just those at the top."

Baldwin noted Trump's campaign promise to "drain the swamp" in Washington, a plan that includes proposed tighter restrictions on former government officials becoming lobbyists.
