On average, Asian American & Pacific Islander women make just $0.85 for every $1.00 their white male colleague makes. We must close the wage gap, address inequities furthered by this pandemic, and pass the #PaycheckFairness Act to achieve equal pay for all women. #AAPIEqualPay — PolitiTweet.org

In my home state of WA, the Pacific Islander community has been hit especially hard by this pandemic. I'm so grateful for @PicaWashington's work to help prioritize reaching vulnerable seniors & ensuring they can get vaccinated. https://t.co/OgiBf00wrg — PolitiTweet.org

We all want to get there as soon as possible. But that starts with the steps we take right now to support and listen to public health experts about how we end this pandemic, and working with them to get all of our communities there. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

This pandemic will not truly be over until we vaccinate everyone we can. And even when it ends, we need to make sure nothing like this happens ever again—which is why I’m reintroducing critical public health infrastructure legislation later this week. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We’re all well aware that it’s not “mission accomplished.” We have to roll up our sleeves, literally and figuratively, and get vaccines in arms. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We took a critical step toward making that a reality by passing the American Rescue Plan, which includes funding for  ✅bolstering COVID testing, contact tracing, & sequencing  ✅increasing vaccines distribution & administration  ✅addressing health inequities  And so much more. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

And it should be just as unthinkable that we would do anything short of everything when it comes to ending this crisis as soon as possible and rebuilding our nation stronger and fairer. I’m glad @POTUS has put forward a bold vision to see our country through this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We are all familiar with the staggering numbers of this pandemic—29 million infected and over half a million dead. But the full toll of that loss and what families have gone through cannot be measured. The true cost of this pandemic so far is unthinkable. — PolitiTweet.org

Betsy DeVos's Title IX rule was an attempt to silence survivors of sexual harassment and assault. I'm glad @POTUS is taking these steps to reverse this harmful rule & work to ensure all students are protected against sexual harassment and violence. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

As we respond to this health and economic crisis, we cannot brush aside the alarming rise of domestic violence and sexual assault incidents. The American Rescue Plan addresses this head on by getting resources to women and families who desperately need them right now. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

This #InternationalWomensDay, let's recognize all the women who are holding together their families, communities, and our society—in this pandemic and long before. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Among so many other things, the American Rescue Plan will do common-sense things like lift millions of children out of poverty AND support working families. These are exactly the kind of bold solutions we need to get our economy running again. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The American Rescue Plan will save so many providers who serve millions of children from closure—and help nearly 875k more families afford quality child care. I am so proud that we’ve set a new precedent for prioritizing economic policies that support working women & families. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I’ve heard from parents around the country about the need to get kids back to the classroom safely and address students’ academic needs and well-being. The American Rescue Plan will help make that happen. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

State, local, & Tribal governments are on the frontlines of this pandemic—& they’ve been left to fend for themselves for too long. The American Rescue Plan’s investments will ensure they can respond to the crisis without slashing jobs & services that people need, especially now. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

For the small businesses in Washington state & across the country that have been devastated by this pandemic, the American Rescue Plan makes critical investments in financial assistance programs for them to get help through this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Vaccines are getting in arms and relief is on the way with the American Rescue Plan. We can’t let our guard down now. Make sure you wear a mask, practice social distancing, and get a vaccine when it’s your turn. — PolitiTweet.org

The Johnson & Johnson vaccine is highly effective against severe COVID-19, hospitalizations, and death. Learn how it’ll make a huge difference in our goal to quickly vaccinate as many Americans as possible. https://t.co/THE6uOZFxm — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The American Rescue Plan will help make sure COVID-19 tests are fast, free, accurate, and everywhere, and will increase tracing and sequencing—which is essential to limiting new strains and ending this pandemic. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Vaccines are ultimately how we are going to end this pandemic. That’s why the American Rescue Plan will help increase our public health workforce and bolster vaccine administration, distribution, and information efforts in states, Tribes, and communities across the country. — PolitiTweet.org
