Sept. 23, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 22, 2018
Tweet - "The Child Care for Working Families Act makes sure that parents do not pay more than they could afford for child care and would help our economy by creating 2.3 million jobs. #ChildCare4All"
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 22, 2018
Tweet - "This is extremely concerning. Republicans are scrambling to attack and undermine Dr. Ford to protect Judge Kavanaugh. It is wildly inappropriate and it needs to stop."
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 22, 2018
Tweet - "Dr. Ford has made the brave decision to testify and share her experience of being sexually assaulted by Judge Kavanaugh. I hope Senate Republicans now agree to listen and treat her fairly and with respect. --PM"
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 22, 2018
Tweet - "Now that Dr. Ford has formally agreed to come to Judiciary Committee hearing, all eyes are on Senate GOP to see how they treat a sexual assault survivor. The Senate failed test in '91, we must do better now. --PM"

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 21, 2018
Tweet - ".@BetsyDevosEd's policies will re-expose veterans to the predatory tactics of for-profit schools. That's just wrong. Our country should always put veterans first, especially when it comes to corporations looking to make a buck regardless of who it hurts."
Sen. Patty Murray

Tweet - "When women make the difficult decision to come forward to share their experience of being sexually assaulted, they should be listened to and believed, not dismissed, questioned, and attacked by the President or anyone else. -PM"

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 21, 2018

Rep. Suzan DelBene
Sept. 20, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray

Rep. Dan Newhouse, ...
Sept. 20, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 20, 2018
Tweet - "Dr. Ford--who is in hiding & facing death threats--has spoken clearly, and she should be believed. There is no reason for Republicans to attack her for reasonably requesting a basic level of fair treatment & human decency. This hearing should be delayed."
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 20, 2018
Tweet - "I was one of four women elected to the Senate after the Anita Hill hearing--and I hoped that 27 years later it would be different. But Dr. Hill is being disrespected & disbelieved--and that's why I will keep standing by her side."
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 20, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 20, 2018
Tweet - "While I'm glad @NIH is acknowledging this problem, it must take concrete, proactive steps to stop sexual harassment and other discriminatory practices against researchers. More must be done to support working environments free from harassment."

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 20, 2018
Tweet - "When someone seeks help for sexual assault or harassment--even if it's at 35,000 feet--they deserve immediate help, not to mention respect and compassion, and the means to seek justice."
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 20, 2018
Tweet - "As a mother & grandmother, I'm outraged by the pain & trauma that forced family separation has caused many innocent children. This heartbreak is the result of President Trump's inhumane policy of separating families. We can't let this happen on our watch."
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 20, 2018
Tweet - "Time & again Republicans have focused on rolling back protections for patients for pre-existing conditions. People across the country have rejected this backwards attempt to sabotage health care. We must continue to protect patients and families."

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 19, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 19, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 18, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 18, 2018
Tweet - "I'm glad the Senate came together to pass the Opioid Crisis Response Act, which includes care for children born to mothers battling addiction. This is a long-overdue step forward to help address this epidemic that's impacting so many people and families."
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 18, 2018

Sen. Patty Murray

Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 18, 2018
Tweet - "I'm glad that Chairman Grassley has started to listen to members telling him he can't simply sweep allegations against Judge Kavanaugh under the rug. It's not just going to go away, and I am glad Republican leaders are starting to realize that."
Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 18, 2018
Tweet - "We know transparency can help make improvements in health care, but unfortunately instead of increasing transparency President Trump's sabotage has only increased chaos and made it harder for families to get the care they need."
