As the impeachment inquiry moves forward, it's important that the House gathers all the facts about President Trump and his associates' actions. This is not about politics—it’s about maintaining our nation’s security & defending the rule of law. https://t.co/0A5sPeI2b8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

As a member of @CSISHealth's commission on global health security, I've worked to highlight how #healthsecurity impacts families and why disaster plans must prioritize the needs of women and girls at the start—not just tack them on as an afterthought. https://t.co/Wz7sDJSPn3 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Glad to help introduce legislation that would get our country back on the path to installing comprehensive & fair immigration reform, & once again make our country a beacon of hope for children & families across the globe fleeing violence and persecution. https://t.co/8S5MFbjzqR — PolitiTweet.org

Kithehaki Band of Pawnee Nation member Colleen Echohawk is a passionate leader in the fight to combat Native homelessness, particularly in urban areas. Her commitment and determination have been critical to helping bring this issue to light. #NAHeritage https://t.co/BSwc0M9cS1 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

There are many families in WA state & across the country who are worried about what will happen if Republicans’ succeed in their harmful health care agenda. @SenateDems & I will continue to stand with those families and fight to #ProtectOurCare. https://t.co/zQqooB8tmi — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The increasingly outrageous actions of this President and his administration have brought us to this moment, where we—as a nation—must make a decision about who we are, what we stand for, and what kind of behavior we will allow at the highest levels of our government. https://t.co/1TIkzsrIeG — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

If Republicans win their health care lawsuit, patients could no longer have protections for pre-ex conditions or the ability to stay on their parents’ plans until age 26. We must keep fighting to #ProtectOurCare. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The Trump-Pence #TitleX gag rule is threatening access to health care for the nearly 4M patients across the country who rely on Title X supported centers for essential care. This is unacceptable and dangerous for so many patients. We must keep speaking out to #ProtectX. https://t.co/Y0RNnXXOnm — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Access to early education is essential to help make sure children are ready when they start kindergarten—but unfortunately, it’s out of reach for too many families. The Child Care for Working Families Act would help solve that. https://t.co/wVFigBYsrn — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Good news: @AmerMedicalAssn has come out in favor of a federal ban on sham “conversion therapy." Congress must work to make this a reality and further protect LGBTQIA+ people from discrimination and harassment. https://t.co/M8945wAEpu — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Signing up for health coverage for the first time? Don't delay your search for quality, affordable health care! Visit @WAplanfinder for information, assistance, and to apply now through December 15. #GetCoveredWA https://t.co/g210G6QkWw — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

While Republicans are working to raise families' health costs, take away their coverage, and make health care lower-quality, @SenateDems are lifting up stories about the patients and families whose health care is in jeopardy. https://t.co/e1KK29MK3V — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Since day 1 of the Trump Administration, Republicans have been working to: ❌raise families’ health costs ❌take away coverage ❌make health care lower-quality Republicans’ plan would jeopardize health care for millions of families—and @SenateDems will keep fighting to stop it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The House impeachment inquiry hearings this week provided even more disturbing evidence of what we already know: President Trump demanded the Ukrainian gov’t launch an investigation into his political opponent, & in doing so, invited foreign interference in our next election. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I'm glad to see Democrats & Republicans come together to pass a bipartisan bill affirming that the U.S. stands in solidarity with the people of Hong Kong and supports their demands for democratic government and autonomy. https://t.co/N0uP2my6O6 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The Senate could vote on House-passed universal background check legislation & take an important step toward ending the gun violence epidemic. The only thing standing in our way is @senatemajldr. Families & communities can't wait any longer for the Senate to take action. https://t.co/5lmJ1tuRdJ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

No family should fear the health care they need is out of budget, or out of reach. That's why I'm pushing for long-term funding for programs that make sure rural communities have affordable care close to home like CHCs, NHSC, and THCs. #NationalRuralHealthDay #PowerOfRural https://t.co/2Nq6veqz5t — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

.@BetsyDeVosED must immediately suspend efforts to create unnecessary barriers to a vital student loan repayment plan. This decision was based on incorrect assumptions & would hurt struggling student borrowers who need assistance to pay back their loans. https://t.co/ePCoKbMXDQ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I introduced legislation that would hold President Trump accountable for his massive executive overreach to ransack funding from critical military projects for his wasteful, vanity border wall. https://t.co/yEeK7VtBCb — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The Trump-Pence #TitleX gag rule is an attack on women, an attack on affordable health care, and an attack on reproductive rights. We must continue to speak out and fight to #ProtectX. https://t.co/7O6sfIt9j2 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

In Spokane & across WA, contract air traffic control towers play an indispensable role in ensuring air safety for families & travelers. Glad to stand w/ @JimInhofe & @JerryMoran to introduce this commonsense bill that will help keep our skies safe. https://t.co/X0Z8Z0Ksjb — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Investing in early education is a long-term investment in our children & their futures. Congress should pass the Child Care for Working Families Act to make sure we're prioritizing early education & giving all children the opportunity to succeed from the start. #ChildCare4All — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Watch @RonWyden share Jasper’s story—a story about a 3-year-old boy who depends on protections for pre-existing conditions that the Republican lawsuit would take away. #ProtectOurCare — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

It is our responsibility to have a strong #VisionForChildren & act on it—that means ensuring access to quality education, a place to call home & food on the table, quality health care that families can afford, & so much more. @UNICEFUSA #WorldChildrensDay — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

In recent months, President Trump has backed off promises to: ✖️lower Rx drug costs b/c of pressure from pharma ✖️act on gun violence b/c of pressure from the NRA & ✖️address the vaping crisis b/c of pressure from tobacco companies. RT if you see a pattern & you don't like it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

54 cents. That’s how much, on average, Latinx women are paid for every dollar their white male colleagues make. This is wrong—and we can help fix it by passing the #PaycheckFairness Act to ensure *everyone* receives equal pay for equal work. #LatinaEqualPay #LatinxEqualPay https://t.co/qsq4nufzA6 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Thank you, @AUCDNews! I’m proud to be your partner in the U.S. Senate & I will keep fighting for equal rights and opportunities for people with disabilities across our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

At today's Senate hearing, I will press Trump's FDA nominee, Dr. Stephen Hahn, on if he will uphold the mission of the FDA & put science & families’ best interests ahead of companies’ bottom lines—including finally clearing the market of all non-tobacco flavored e-cigarettes. — PolitiTweet.org
