Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I’m glad @POTUS took action today to help struggling borrowers. I've outlined a clear plan to do more: the Admin should forgive some debt for all borrowers and fix our student loan system—& extend the pause until 2023 so we can get it done. I’ll keep pushing. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

From confirming a working mom to SCOTUS, to ensuring we're ready for public health threats from COVID-19—Democrats are delivering for working people this week. And we are going to keep fighting for lower costs for people and families on everything from child care to health care. https://t.co/ladNFC22ke — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Today I spoke with WA state's @naehomelessness partners who have spent this pandemic supporting as many people as possible. I look forward to working alongside them to address the serious need for more affordable housing & supportive services for people experiencing homelessness. https://t.co/3Ma83XZfAg — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I'm really glad to see @POTUS will close the "family glitch," which will save people in WA state and across the country hundreds of dollars on their health care coverage every month. And what better way to announce this great news than with President @BarackObama? — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Republicans chose to hold vaccines, testing, and life-saving COVID treatments hostage even though our communities need them now. This is a bipartisan bill that's necessary to keep this pandemic under control. Let's do our jobs & get it done. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Whether it’s housing, health care, or anything else, military kids deserve to know that we're looking out for them and their families. I'm proud to introduce a bipartisan resolution with @cathymcmorris focused solely on our commitment to military kids. https://t.co/Dk2baFRnuy — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Extreme Republicans have pulled back the curtain on their push to take away your reproductive health care—and they’re targeting everything from abortion to birth control. RT if you’re with me in the fight to protect reproductive health care. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

There are many lessons we can take from the last 2 years, but this one is crystal clear: we’ve got to prioritize public health. That's why I'm working to pass bipartisan legislation to strengthen our public health systems so we’re never in this situation again. #PublicHealthWeek — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We're one step closer to getting Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson confirmed. I am really looking forward to voting YES to send her to the Supreme Court. She's going to make an amazing justice. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

This is really great news for families—it's something I pushed for and that I'll keep working to build on to address our nation's maternal mortality crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Folks in Washington state now have a one-stop-shop for all things COVID-19. That means finding free high-quality masks, vaccination sites, tests, and life-saving therapeutics. Click the link below for more information. https://t.co/w51QCN3c0b — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

With prices rising across Washington state, I’m focused out in the other Washington on lowering costs and making sure families can get the basics they need—like child care and prescription drugs—at prices they can afford. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I’m working on: Making sure everyone can get birth control.  Protecting the federal right to abortion.  Fighting back against Republican attacks on reproductive health care. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The student loan payment pause has got to be extended until at least 2023. With rising costs and still building back from the pandemic, this is not the time to make borrowers start paying again. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Every day we fail to act on the climate crisis is an opportunity we miss to prevent the absolute worst for current & future generations. Republicans should get behind the science & work with us to take bold climate action—but Democrats need to go big on climate no matter what. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Over the last decade, insulin prices have tripled. But insulin isn’t suddenly 3x better—it’s the same product. Drug companies keep jacking the price up for bigger profits & that’s wrong. We’ve got to bring down insulin costs and @SenatorWarnock & I are working on it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Here’s what you need to know about my child care plan: it lowers costs for families, improves the quality of early education, raises wages for early educators, and provides more options for parents. RT if you’re ready for the Senate to pass it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Anyone who has spoken to local restaurant owners knows they are dealing with tough challenges right now—& too many qualified restaurants didn’t get the same help their neighbors got because federal relief dollars ran dry. I’m fighting to replenish those funds & make that right. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

.@usedgov & @TheJusticeDept have got to follow through on the Biden Administration’s pledge to support struggling student borrowers seeking bankruptcy relief. The bar to get relief is too high right now, and it’s time for them to lower it. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I'm glad the Biden Administration listened to my call to rescind the Title 42 order. This policy should be about public health first—not politics. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Income-driven repayment plans should be a lifeline that help borrowers work towards real relief—but these plans have failed millions. Our student loan system is seriously broken & as I've made clear to the Biden Administration: it’s got to be fixed before payments resume. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Congratulations, @amazonlabor, on this historic moment! Every single worker who wants to should be able to join and form a union, and I’ll keep fighting to protect and strengthen the right to organize. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

As we build back a fairer and stronger economy, we’ve got to do everything we can to make sure we don’t leave working women behind. That includes passing paid leave. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The Title X program delivers essential reproductive health care that patients need to stay healthy—like birth control, STI screenings, and cancer screenings—from providers they trust. I'll do everything I can to protect this program from Republican attacks. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I had a great conversation today with people from across Southwest WA about how federal funding I secured will support projects to improve the region's transportation, help young people get jobs, & improve health care access for rural communities. https://t.co/JtNQFcvzsi — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

This new @NWLC report shows what so many women have been saying throughout the pandemic: whether it’s child care or paid leave, we’ve got to do better to support women. We can’t just go back to normal when normal just wasn’t working for so many women. — PolitiTweet.org

Thanks to @PortsUnited and WA port leaders for talking with me today. I'm really proud of what we were able to deliver for our state's ports to support so many new projects, and I'm honored to receive your inaugural President’s Award for Legislative Leadership. https://t.co/GpC8bDhYql — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

LIVE: I’m talking with @SenatorWarnock, @ProtectOurCare, & patients from WA & GA on the urgent need to lower drug prices on lifesaving medications like insulin. Lifesaving drugs don’t do any good if people can’t afford them—& we have a plan to fix that. https://t.co/LlUut0xsoQ — PolitiTweet.org
