Politician
Jan. 11, 2018
Tweet - "We must settle the fate of #Dreamers & as the meeting at the White House showed, passing DACA protections into law is within reach. But if @SpeakerRyan & the hard right in the House coalesce behind @RepGoodlatte's proposal on #DACA, then we'll have no deal."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Jan. 11, 2018
Tweet - "ICYMI: Nonpartisan CBO says finding a solution to fund CHIP and getting children the health care they need actually SAVES money."
Sen. Patty Murray
Jan. 11, 2018
Tweet - "We can provide needed health coverage & care for 9 million kids, AND save $6 billion. Only thing stopping us is the delay from Republicans. We must act now."
Sen. Patty Murray
Jan. 11, 2018
Tweet - "It's been 100+ days since deadline to fund CHIP, but Republicans spent the last months of 2017 giving tax breaks to massive corporations & the wealthiest instead of taking care of the health needs of children and families."
Sen. Patty Murray
Jan. 11, 2018
Tweet - "Yesterday I shared one story of a family in Washington state who relies on CHIP for the health care they need, here are 6 more from across the country (Special Character)"

Sen. Patty Murray
Jan. 10, 2018
Tweet - "Let me be VERY clear: this ruling last night in no way diminishes the urgency of resolving the DACA issue. On this, we agree with @WhiteHouse, who says the ruling doesn't do anything to reduce Congress' obligation to address this problem now."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
Jan. 10, 2018
Tweet - "Today I shared the story of Stella, a 5-year-old in WA born with spina bifida. She needs 5 catheters a day, new leg braces, multiple MRI scans a year. She is one of 60k WA kids who rely on CHIP for needed health care. Congress must #SaveCHIP for our families."
Sen. Patty Murray
Jan. 10, 2018

Jan. 8, 2018
Tweet - "The White House set this crisis in motion when it ended DACA four months ago. Now, they are using Dreamers as a bargaining chip to pass a wish-list of hardline anti-immigrant bills. That's being unreasonable #DreamActNow."
