Politician
Dec. 12, 2018
United for Climate and Environmental Justice Task Force Co-Chairs Introduced Environmental Rights Legislation
Rep. Pramila Jayapal, ...
Dec. 12, 2018
Tweet - "More & more often, consumer data is being used & abused in ways few people had imagined before. The #DataCareAct will hold the companies we entrust with our personal information accountable & will make it clear to them that they will face penalties if they breach our trust."
Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 11, 2018
Tweet - "That is our duty as Americans & adults to protect our children & to make sure that these things don't ever happen again." - Chrissy Ball I stand with women & survivors in fighting against @BetsyDeVosED's proposed #TitleIX rule. I call on everyone to make their voices heard too."
Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 11, 2018
Tweet - "My assault occurred at an off-campus apartment down the street from my school. That means that under DeVos' rules, my school wouldn't have to investigate my case." - Sage Carson .@BetsyDeVosED's rule was clearly written to protect schools, not students & survivors. #HandsOffIX"
Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 11, 2018
Tweet - "Democrats oppose President Trump's wasteful wall. We don't think it makes any sense, we don't think it would make us any more secure --and we don't understand why he is asking American taxpayers to pay for it after promising, again and again, that Mexico would foot the bill."
Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 11, 2018
Tweet - "When it comes to sexual assault and harassment, survivors' voices should always be heard loud and clear and taken seriously--and that certainly shouldn't stop at 35,000 feet."

Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 9, 2018
Tweet - "The Trump administration's rationale for deploying active duty troops was to evoke fear & doesn't serve a national security purpose. Continuing to rely on active duty troops militarizes the border & normalizes their deployment domestically--a dangerous precedent for any democracy."

Sen. Patty Murray
Dec. 8, 2018
Tweet - "The #TitleIX changes do not protect survivors of assault that happens off-campus. Even if it doesn't happen in-person does not change the fact that the student feels unsafe." - Mia Farmer .@BetsyDeVosED's rule will weaken students' protections. This is unacceptable. #HandsOffIX"
