Great to be in Seattle with @RepJayapal & our friends in organized labor to talk about why we must protect the right to organize. Legislation like the PRO Act is important to make sure workers’ rights are protected & the economy works for everyone—not just those at the very top. https://t.co/3Ki8jz6i88 — PolitiTweet.org

Do you take 1 pill instead of 2? Go without an inhaler? Ration your insulin? No one in our country should have to make these kinds of difficult choices and risk their health because of high prescription drug costs—& I'll keep pushing for changes to make sure they don't have to. https://t.co/DvY3FEl1LN — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Our country may be responsible for some of the most advanced medical science in the world—but even the most brilliant miracle cure can only save people if they can actually get it. We need to address high prescription drug costs to ensure patients come before profits. https://t.co/BWgs9dC4pa — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

No one in our country should be worried they, or their loved ones, will lose their life or spend it struggling, just because they can’t afford the drugs they need—and my plans would help make sure they don't have to. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Meaningful changes to address increasing prescription drug prices must look at every step, and that includes: ✔️ removing barriers to more affordable drugs & increasing competition ✔️ changing how prices are set & negotiated ✔️ addressing how much people pay out-of-pocket — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

So many families struggle to keep up with skyrocketing prescription drug costs. Today at Country Doctor Community Health Center in Seattle, I’m laying out my ideas to help bring down drug costs and put patients over profits. https://t.co/mrZfTm1AKG — PolitiTweet.org

As the daughter of a WWII veteran, I'm proud to honor Seattle resident and retired Col. George Westlake who was on Omaha Beach on #DDay and the many brave servicemembers and veterans from around the world who fought to defend the values of democracy. #DDay75thAnniversary — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

This flimsy rule doesn’t come close to what families deserve. People should be able to trust the professionals they turn to for help planning their financial futures are putting their clients’ financial security ahead of their own bottom line. https://t.co/EyenRlzhIe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

My team & I are proud to have the Pride & Transgender Pride flags outside my Washington, D.C. office to celebrate #PrideMonth! EVERYONE should have equal rights and opportunity in our country—and I’ll keep fighting in the Senate to help make that happen. https://t.co/2OMExuM7Kd — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Making sure every woman can get preventative and life-saving cancer screenings—no matter who she is, where she lives, or how much she makes—can make all the difference. The Jeanette Acosta #InvestInWomensHealth Act is a critical step to expand access to care. #SaveOurScreenings — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Jeanette Acosta was 32 when she lost her battle with cervical cancer. She was a Capitol Hill staffer, Obama White House intern, & #WomensHealth advocate. We honor her today by introducing the #InvestInWomensHealth Act to increase access to preventive care & cancer screenings. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

People will remember who fed them empty promises about protecting those with pre-ex conditions & who stood with them to fight back against cruel attempts to rip away their health care. Proud to join @SenatorBaldwin & @SenateDems to show the American people we're on their side. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I hope Vice President Biden reconsiders his stance on the Hyde amendment. It’s critical that women know we will fight for their right to safe, legal abortion every step of the way. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I support repealing the Hyde amendment and believe we need to do everything possible to make sure all women have access to the care they need, no matter how much money they make or where they live. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Protecting the constitutional right to a safe, legal abortion is important for everyone, including men. #MenForChoice, stand up and join us in the fight to #StopTheBans. https://t.co/lDYlIybAG7 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

50 years ago, Spokane’s air was filled with smoke & soot. Clear air investments in WA and across the country have made a difference. But we can't let up now. This #WorldEnvironmentDay, we must recommit to protecting our natural resources and work together to #BeatAirPollution. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

As we celebrate Senate passage of the #19thAmendment, I want to not only remember how hard women fought to get the right to vote—but to promise to keep fighting just as hard to protect it for everyone in this country. #WomensVote100 #19thAt100 https://t.co/LRxupE8Gfs — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

In 2016, women across the country stood up, spoke out, and fought back to protect their rights. So while there's still a lot of work to do to make good on the promise of the #19thAmendment, I'm confident we can get there. #WomensVote100 #19thAt100 https://t.co/TU3Owioct3 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Congratulations, @RepJayapal! I'm proud to work with strong, diverse, and smart women like you to represent the great state of Washington. https://t.co/BDWFtSq4q1 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The House took a long overdue step today to ensure permanent protections for #Dreamers, #TPS, and #DED by passing the #DreamAndPromiseNow Act. It's beyond time for the Senate to follow suit and take the necessary steps to fix our broken immigration system. #ProtectTheDream — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Even today, too many states are putting up barriers through voter suppression efforts that disproportionately hurt communities of color. After all the years women spent fighting for their right to vote—it’s unacceptable these kinds of efforts would strip that right from anyone. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

When we passed the #19thAmendment, there was only one woman in Congress—Jeannette Rankin. Today there are 25 women serving in the Senate and over 100 in the House of Representatives. It’s clear we’ve come a long way—but we still have more work ahead. #19thAt100 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Speaking on the Senate floor to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Senate passing the #19thAmendment that guaranteed a women's right to vote. #WomensVote100 #19thAt100 https://t.co/5qzRcfMSCs — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Every American deserves a safe, secure, and affordable home. I'm proud to stand with @NLIHC to urge action on affordable housing and increase economic opportunities for families in Washington and across the country. #OurHomesOurVoices #HousingIsInfrastructure — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

First cages, now vans. This is truly shameful and I will keep fighting to make sure President Trump and his administration are held accountable for this abuse. https://t.co/RktFhkZ1mN — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

For too long, the epidemic of missing and murdered Native American women and girls has not received adequate attention and resources. We need to keep shining a light on #MMIW in WA and across the country to address this devastating crisis head-on. https://t.co/dFe8qOwnvS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

When a woman is in control of her health care decisions & her body, she can: ✔️ plan her family ✔️ stay in control of her future ✔️ stay independent & financially secure Join me to fight against the reckless #AbortionBans that want to take us back to a time before #RoeVWade. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Being able to access and afford timely care can be a matter of life and death. I will keep fighting to ensure health care is within reach for all families. https://t.co/osq4K7CzPs — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

A majority of Americans agree that access to a safe, legal abortion is a constitutional right and is essential for women to control their bodies, their health care, and their futures. We need to stand together to stop cruel attempts to restrict and criminalize abortion care. — PolitiTweet.org
