A pandemic is raging in our state. Left unchecked, it will overburden our hospitals. Our economic devastation will be prolonged. More Washingtonians will die. We will not allow this to happen. That’s why we are acting today. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

One thing we don’t need right now is hoarding. Our supply chain remains strong, and buying up everything in sight only hurts efforts to keep the flow of goods adequate to meet everyone’s needs. Please be considerate and save some for your neighbors, family and friends. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Today’s announcement does not change our guidance for child care services, nor for K-12 education. That guidance and its recommendations will remain in place for now. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Today, I am announcing another $50 million in aid to help mitigate impacts on businesses and workers, and we fully intend to get that money out – as grants and loans – before the end of the year. We will bounce back after we make it through this wave of infection. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

To our workers and businesses - I know this hurts. We do not take lightly the impact of these restrictions. But this much is clear: We cannot enjoy a full economic recovery before we have gotten this virus under control. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

This is not a result of more testing. Our hospital occupancy is increasing. Our test-positivity rate is increasing. And around the country, hospital systems are beginning to get overwhelmed. https://t.co/9Uv1mEuzoE — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We are facing a third wave that is more dangerous than any we’ve seen before. We cannot and will not lose control of this virus. https://t.co/ydHSqAOCab — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Today is the most dangerous public health day in the last 100 years of our state’s history. A pandemic is raging in Washington. Today, we are taking action to stop it. https://t.co/p7IWK3GFUG — PolitiTweet.org

For the first time ever, WA confirmed more than 2,000 new COVID-19 cases in a single day.   We know how to slow this virus. It's on all of us to get it done.   And we need to do it now. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Please - do not gather with anyone outside your household. It’s just too dangerous. Not forever, but for now. https://t.co/cZs1FygoEd — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Washington, California and Oregon are issuing a travel advisory to slow the spread of COVID-19. 1⃣ We recommend self-quarantining for 14 days when entering WA. 2⃣ Please stay close to home and avoid non-essential travel to other states. https://t.co/dWaExiRRKO — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

There is plenty to be thankful for, knowing we have the tools and the people to defeat this, and we appreciate all of you. We are not helpless in this fight. Happy Thanksgiving, from us to you. Stay healthy, Washington. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

And thank you to the 7.6 million Washingtonians who have each others’ backs every day, and who we are eternally grateful to call partners in this fight. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Thank you to the frontline and essential workers, from our health care system to our educators, from our farms to our grocery stores, from our retailers to our childcare workers, who have faced considerable risk throughout this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We are all fatigued, and it’s OK to not feel OK right now. But what happens next in our state depends on what happens in our communities. That’s why we implore you to rethink how you celebrate Thanksgiving, and the December holidays. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Every idea is on the table right now, except for the idea of failing to contain this virus. That is not an option. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

In the next few days we will be announcing some further measures to prevent this from spreading. These decisions will affect what we do outside of the home. But what’s most urgent right now is what we do in our own dwellings. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

More than 240,000 chairs will be empty in homes across the U.S. because of the lives taken by COVID-19. As you rethink holiday plans with your family, consider also how you can welcome these families into your hearts by the actions you take to protect your community. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

Like so many of you, our family cherishes our Thanksgiving traditions. But this year, our family will celebrate the holidays virtually. The good news is we only have to do this once. But it is just too dangerous to gather right now. — PolitiTweet.org

Governor Jay Inslee @GovInslee

We are in as dangerous a position today as we were in March. In just the last two weeks our case numbers have doubled. Simply put, it’s just too dangerous to gather with anyone outside our household right now. https://t.co/yH1cS30cGg — PolitiTweet.org

COVID-19 cases are spiking all across the country. Washington is no different. Our hospitalizations are now on the rise, too. We need to get this under control, and we need to do it fast. — PolitiTweet.org
