Sept. 30, 2018 Tweet - "We cannot allow a Supreme Court Justice to be jammed through. It would be a disgrace. It would damage the integrity of the Supreme Court. It would shred any integrity left in the US Senate. We cannot let anger cloud what is clearly the right thing to do." Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 30, 2018 Tweet - "I think women need to do what they are doing right now--speaking up and being strong. Yes, cry--but don't give up the fight." READ: Senator Murray's advice to women ahead of the FBI investigations into Judge Kavanaugh in @Cosmopolitan" Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 30, 2018 Tweet - "I'm not giving up this fight to make sure women who bravely come forward are not ignored, swept under the rug, or silenced by powerful men. I stand with millions of women & men across the country--who are watching the Senate closely--who aren't going to give up either." Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 29, 2018 Tweet - "This is deeply concerning. FBI investigation shouldn't be limited or a box to check in rush to confirm. It needs to be real investigation of all credible allegations, relevant witnesses, and info -PM" Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 29, 2018 Tweet - "Dr. Ford spoke for herself--but she was channeling the voices of millions of women and survivors across the country who are too often ignored, interrupted, bullied, or swept aside. She was an inspiration. #BelieveSurvivors" Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 28, 2018 Nomination of Brett Kavanaugh Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "I decided to run for the Senate when I saw an all-male Judiciary Committee mistreat Anita Hill in 1991. 27 years later, women & men--our daughters, sons, & grandkids--are watching.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "To the women and survivors who are angry and dispirited right now: You have a right to your tears and frustration. But we can't give up. I'm not giving up.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "Is the Senate a place where women are heard & respected? Or is it still just one more place where women's voices are ignored & undermined.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "Dr. Ford welcomed an investigation, answered questions, took a polygraph, & remembered details--like seeing Mark Judge at the supermarket a few weeks later.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "Yesterday's hearing doesn't have to be the final word. There is no rush. We can have the FBI investigate. We can continue investigations. We can bring in additional witnesses.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "Dr. Ford shared her story yesterday because she felt it was her civic duty to share what she knew about Judge Kavanaugh to the people making the decision about whether or not he should be on our nation's highest court.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "Eleven men on the Senate Judiciary Committee may not believe Dr. Ford. But on the steps of the Supreme Court, so many more do, and this outpouring of support should give us all hope." Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "The Senate failed Anita Hill & all women in 1991. 27 years later, we must do better. If GOP leaders rush this nomination through with so much that still needs to be heard--women & men across the country are going to stand up & fight back." Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "I watched the brave Dr. Ford yesterday w tears in my eyes. The memories she recounted-- The loud music. The bed. Brett Kavanaugh--drunk, on top of her, covering her mouth.

Sept. 28, 2018 Tweet - "Senate GOP seem intent on rushing to confirm Judge Kavanaugh, but isn't partisan or controversial. The Senate should do its job. They should allow a full FBI investigation.
