51 years ago, the #Stonewall uprising empowered the #LGBTQ community. Today, we commend LGBTQ bravery, solidarity, & resiliency. — PolitiTweet.org

Every individual deserves the freedom to make their own #healthcare choices. Today, on the anniversary of #WholeWomansHealth, I’m proud to keep fighting for reproductive health & rights for all. https://t.co/5Pc4ssESYS — PolitiTweet.org

Today marks the 5 year anniversary of the SCOTUS #Obergefell decision providing nationwide marriage equality. Who y… https://t.co/A9RHI4oIqU — PolitiTweet.org

President Trump’s nominee to lead @USCPSC has advocated for the deregulation of toxic #PFAS chemicals & repeatedly sided with industry over the safety of American families. @USCPSC is the last line of defense for consumers—we can’t afford to go backwards. https://t.co/hR90oBXCZM — PolitiTweet.org

Wearing a mask is so important to slow the spread of COVID-19. Be safe and strong, Washington! #WearAMaskWA #YakimaStrong https://t.co/2BKh9jDY3u — PolitiTweet.org

When it comes to civil rights, a report is not enough. We’re not looking for 75%—we’re looking to protect all Americans' constitutional rights. There is a federal role here & we should not abdicate it with a weak bill. America is watching. https://t.co/T8wL7iiit8 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

It’s no surprise the @NatUrbanLeague said the Republican legislation does not meet the moment for racial justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

What Americans want is justice, guaranteed by a strong federal response. We need real bipartisan effort to uphold the civil liberties of all Americans, not a pre-determined process for a weak bill. https://t.co/HQw415OC4w — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

Today, as we honor the anniversary of #TitleIX, we applaud the tremendous achievements of millions of female athletes around the country—they are a reminder of Title IX’s enduring legacy. It’s time for us to work together to ensure female athletes get equal pay for equal play. https://t.co/DCGEwI3r2v — PolitiTweet.org

I have cosponsored S.631, legislation to recognize DC statehood and ensure that the more than 700,000 people who call Washington, DC home will have full representation in our democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

I urged @POTUS to change course & use his executive authority to protect #Dreamers. It would be an American tragedy to deport DACA recipients who are saving lives in the midst of this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

More than 16,000 Washingtonians live and work in our state under #DACA. DREAMers are our fellow Americans. They invest in and contribute to their communities & help us build a better and more prosperous America. https://t.co/mN5UWv68ii — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

We need an independent FAA. My bill would fundamentally change the way the FAA oversees the certification of large commercial aircrafts and make sure the FAA stays in the driver’s seat of certification. https://t.co/FhHU7HbCdi — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

Safety is job one in aviation certification. I pressed FAA chief Steve Dickson on how the #FAA needs to improve certification so that engineering safety is driving the process. https://t.co/cPNX4QtmXG — PolitiTweet.org

Happy #FathersDay to all the dads in Washington & across the country—we appreciate you! — PolitiTweet.org

#Juneteenth marks the end of slavery. It’s a day to remember and reflect, and a day to recommit ourselves to ending racial injustice wherever we find it. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

LGBTQ+ Americans still face discrimination in far too many areas of life—public accommodations, housing, education, and some federally-funded programs. It’s time for Leader McConnell to take the #EqualityAct out of the legislative graveyard and get it onto the Senate floor. https://t.co/xf9wrBIZYz — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

Court rules FOR THE PEOPLE--Dreamers, my fellow Americans! Trump’s use of the DOJ to subvert the law is wrong. What does it cost US taxpayers to keep defending Trump’s illegal actions? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

The @USCPSC is our last line of defense against toxic hazards & defects in consumer products. Dr. Beck’s record is clear—she’s sided with industry over the safety of American families. We can’t afford to go back on regulation of toxic chemicals like #PFAS. https://t.co/rS2igy8puA — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

This is a huge day for public lands in the United States. #LWCF couldn’t be a more important investment or give America a bigger return. Open space is a great driver of our economy, but more importantly, it’s an essential aspect of American life. #FundLWCF #FixOurParks https://t.co/yo09dkgYFJ — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

Today the Senate passed the Great American Outdoors Act, which will fully #FundLWCF and address the maintenance backlog in our national parks. #LWCF has dedicated, across the United States, 5 million acres of open space for all Americans to enjoy. That is a big win. #FixOurParks https://t.co/fXMfztYB8y — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

The outdoor economy generates $887 billion in consumer spending annually. Fully funding #LWCF is the right fiscal policy, it is good for us & for our future. I urged my colleagues vote on final passage of this landmark legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

The economic return on public lands are phenomenal. #LWCF is one of the smartest fiscal policies we can make—raising revenue from private entities' offshore drilling & using it to preserve open space, generate revenue, & help all of us enjoy the outdoors. #FundLWCF #FixOurParks https://t.co/mEmxg42BAz — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

While this week’s Supreme Court decision was important & fundamental, I want to emphasize how disappointed I am that we’ve had legislation to protect #LGTBQ+ Americans—the #EqualityAct—that we could’ve passed decades ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

Leader McConnell and the Republicans should take the #EqualityAct out of the legislative graveyard and get it onto the Senate floor. We need this comprehensive civil rights and anti-discrimination legislation to help protect the LGBTQ+ community. https://t.co/mmRc2jzfhi — PolitiTweet.org

Until today, we had no federal law against firing an employee or harassing someone at work for being gay, lesbian, bisexual, or trans. That is just wrong. And LGBTQ+ Americans still face discrimination in so many areas of life. https://t.co/ap9DCemrLf — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

Gay and transgender Americans should not face discrimination in the workplace or live in fear of losing their jobs simply because of who they are. This is a very important step forward, but it is also long overdue. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Maria Cantwell @SenatorCantwell

Public lands provide Americans with places to recreate, hunt, fish, and find solace & recovery. Because #LWCF is paid for by royalties from oil companies drilling offshore, these investments don’t cost taxpayers a dime or add to our deficit. #FundLWCF https://t.co/uDTf1oGjtv — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to Raigan Barrett of Rogers High in Puyallup for being named a @Gatorade Washington Softball Player of the Year! This award recognizes Raigan as WA’s best high school softball player for outstanding athletic excellence, academic achievement & exemplary character. — PolitiTweet.org
