Sept. 23, 2018 Tweet - "Witnessing the bullying of Dr. Ford reminds me so much of the mistreatment Anita Hill endured after bravely coming forward to share her story. I came into the US Senate because I didn't want to see another woman--or any survivor--treated that way again." Sen. Patty Murray

Sept. 21, 2018 Tweet - "Senate Republicans should be ashamed of bullying a sexual assault survivor for their own political gains or any other reason. Dr. Ford has said she wants to testify and Senate Republicans should work with her to accommodate her reasonable requests. --PM" 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 - "If Senate GOP fails to give Dr. Ford a fair hearing, they're sending women across the country a clear message--if you have been assaulted or harassed by a powerful Republican, you better not talk about it or you're going to pay a price. #IBelieveChristine" 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. 19, 2018 Tweet - "We are not about to stand aside as President Trump and extreme Republicans roll back women's rights. We will not be still. We will not be silent. We will not go back. We will stand up. We will speak out. #StopKavanaugh" Sen. Patty Murray
Sept. 19, 2018 Tweet - "Scheduling a hearing a week from when Dr. Ford made her accusations public, and without an investigation, is an attempt to jam Judge Kavanaugh's nomination through. This is a test for the Senate on how we handle accusations like these--I hope we pass it." Sen. Patty Murray
