Early childhood educators—who are often underpaid and undervalued—do so much to support working families and our economy. I’m fighting to make sure we support these educators as we work to fix our nation’s #ChildCare crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

The upcoming budget deal is our opportunity to #SolveChildCare and finally make sure millions of families across Washington state and the nation can get the quality, affordable child care they need—and it’s one of many reasons why this deal is so important. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Without child care, so many parents are struggling to rejoin the workforce or invest in their small business. As we build back fairer and stronger from this pandemic, we need to #InvestInChildCare for working families—and our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The best way to protect yourself and those around you from the highly-contagious Delta variant of the virus that causes COVID-19 is to get vaccinated. https://t.co/HAtLpFm033 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We’ve got a lot of work ahead of us, but Democrats are united in wanting to deliver for the workers, families, and communities who rightly expect their country to have their back in challenging times like this—and that’s what we’re determined to do. https://t.co/LubmkmkwjF — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The times when somebody needs paid leave—whether it’s for starting a family, for personal illness, or to care for a loved one—those are times when you should be able to feel like your country has your back and you’re not all on your own. We need a national paid leave program. — PolitiTweet.org

LIVE NOW: @SenBrianSchatz and I are discussing our shared commitment to making a big, bold investment in climate action. The climate crisis is here and we’ve got to take action. https://t.co/6Ocu8d9OU0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The expanded #ChildTaxCredit has already helped so many Washington state families at a time when they’ve desperately needed it. For more info: https://t.co/AByVtycMV5 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Our nation’s leading public health experts all agree: the one thing everyone can do to help keep us from returning to the early days of this pandemic is to get vaccinated. https://t.co/FdS1bZvWeL — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

99% of COVID-19 deaths nationwide last month were among people who had not gotten vaccinated. We have to do everything we can to promote vaccine confidence, fight misinformation, and stress that this is a matter of life or death. COVID-19 vaccines are safe, effective, and free. https://t.co/ev0oTkic5j — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

It’s so important we fully learn the lessons of this pandemic and take action so we are never in this situation again. That’s why @SenatorBurr and I are leading bipartisan efforts to evaluate our response and strengthen our public health and preparedness infrastructure. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Even after we are through this crisis, our work won’t be done. There is a saying in health care that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That’s why I’m leading the charge to make sure when the next pandemic hits, we’re ready to deal with it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We also have to remember vaccinations are just one tool in this fight. We need to support data and lab modernization, bolster local health departments fighting outbreaks, evaluate the longevity of immunity and value of booster shots, and study and treat long haul COVID-19. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

While I am encouraged by the fact two-thirds of adults in our country now have their first dose of vaccine, I’m also alarmed that the rate of vaccination has been slowing, and that—driven by the delta variant—rates of COVID-19 cases and deaths are once again on the rise. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

LIVE: I’m chairing a Senate HELP Committee hearing to get an update on our federal response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We are at a point of great promise and peril in the fight against COVID-19, and we must use every tool to get through this. https://t.co/BW2t099UJ1 — PolitiTweet.org

The delta variant of the virus that causes COVID-19 is driving cases up across the country. It’s so important you and your loved ones get vaccinated to protect yourselves and help save lives. https://t.co/qdLoeFh5Qh — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We have to be doing everything in our power to #ProtectVotingRights. Today's Senate field hearing in Georgia will help shed light on why it's so urgent we enact basic federal standards. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I’m working to ensure any major investments in combatting the climate crisis that we negotiate go hand-in-hand with promoting climate justice & taking into account the experiences & concerns of the communities most affected by environmental harm. https://t.co/7w4ozGnJgc — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Farmworkers deserve strong worker protections—and that should absolutely include a federal heat standard. I’m pushing for legislation that would protect the many workers who had to continue working during the recent & unprecedented heat waves. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

ICYMI: I wrote an op-ed for @SeattleTimes about how we must take action on the federal level to address the climate crisis. It’s not only a necessity—but also the will of the millions of people living the effects of climate change now. https://t.co/TgXiIRt4tN — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I’m fighting to pass the #BetterCareBetterJobs Act because making sure people have access to home and community-based services is a matter of civil rights. Every single person with a disability deserves the opportunity to live independently in their community. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

No matter where you live, who you are, or what your income is, you should be able to get quality health coverage without breaking the bank. A federal public option would help guarantee that. — PolitiTweet.org
