July 25, 2018
Tweet - "#SCOTUS justice is one of the most important positions in the world, and certainly in America. Shouldn't we know everything about the nominee? Not just some of the stuff the White House wants us to know, but everything."
Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 25, 2018
Tweet - "But Judge Kavanaugh himself said that his years as staff secretary were "among the most instructive"- aren't those papers important enough for the Senate to see?"
Sen. Chuck Schumer
July 25, 2018
Sanders Introduces Bill to End Money Bail

Sen. John Barrasso
July 25, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray
July 25, 2018
Tweet - "I had a great opportunity to meet with Judge Kavanaugh today. We talked about his time as a clerk on the court & his knowledge & understanding of the issues that face our country & what happens when the government tries to overreach."
Sen. John Barrasso
July 25, 2018
Tweet - "Despite what the White House would have us believe, this is not a country that wants to follow President Trump, Vice President Pence, and five male Supreme Court justices back to 1972. But the only way to stop this from happening is for people to take action."

Sen. Patty Murray
July 25, 2018
Tweet - "If Judge Kavanaugh is confirmed, a woman's ability to get reproductive health care could overwhelmingly depend, like it did before Roe, on whether she could afford it, and therefore, disproportionately on her race and zip code as well."
Sen. Patty Murray
July 25, 2018
Tweet - "Should Judge Kavanaugh be confirmed, he would be a fifth vote on the Supreme Court to overturn Roe v. Wade and roll back reproductive rights women have had for more than four decades."
Sen. Patty Murray
July 25, 2018
Tweet - "Anyone who says President Trump isn't applying an anti-choice litmus test in this nomination or thinks it's unclear where President Trump's allegiance lies when it comes to women's health should take a look at what he's said and done."
Sen. Patty Murray
July 25, 2018
Tweet - "I'm heading to the Senate floor to talk about the importance of Roe v. Wade, how it has impacted women's ability to access care and plan for their futures for decades, and why we can't stop making our voices heard to oppose Judge Kavanaugh's nomination. -PM"

Sen. Patty Murray
July 24, 2018
