Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Thank you, @RepCori, for sharing your story and helping lead our fight to protect the constitutional right to abortion. You're right, this fight is about ensuring people can control their bodies and their futures. https://t.co/Ku9uL9lLMJ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

The decision to get an abortion is an incredibly personal one—but it's one everyone should have the ability to make for themselves, no matter who they are, where they live, or how much money they have. Thank you, @RepCori, @RepBarbaraLee, and @RepJayapal. — PolitiTweet.org

As @SenSherrodBrown said, raising kids is work. Especially in a pandemic. If you haven't already, use this new tool to sign up for the expanded #ChildTaxCredit right from your phone. https://t.co/GdHguSEbbd — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We’ve offered Republicans opportunity after opportunity to do the right thing & protect families’ financial security by avoiding a default, & yet they still won’t lift a finger. It’s time for them to work with us or get out of the way & let us lead like voters elected us to do. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Today @SenateDems were able to prevent a senseless government shutdown, help our Afghan allies and refugees resettle, and get relief to Washington state farmers and fishers who’ve been dealt one blow after another due to extreme weather. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Working families should be able to find and afford child care, and the #BuildBackBetter budget would help make that a reality. This is the kind of support families need and I'm committed to getting it across the finish line. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Students, educators, and families are counting on policymakers to take this pandemic seriously. We still have a lot of work ahead to get our schools and students through this—and I’m determined to make sure we do. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Unfortunately, the basic steps that could keep students, educators, and communities safe, like masks and vaccines, have been politicized—with some Republican governors and state legislators trying to outlaw them. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

As the Delta variant has shown us, this pandemic is far from over. Pediatric hospitals across the country are running out of beds, and we’ve seen 1,800+ school closures this year due to COVID-19 outbreaks. Families are exhausted. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

My goal since the start of the pandemic has been to get students back in the classroom safely for in-person learning. Democrats have fought to make that a reality—with common sense public health measures, steps to accelerate learning, & making sure students could navigate it all. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

This pandemic has been incredibly hard on students and families. For over a year, many students weren’t able to see their teachers, friends, counselors, or coaches. And for many students, they simply didn’t get the support they needed to shift to remote learning. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

LIVE: I’m leading a Senate HELP Committee hearing with @SecBecerra and @SecCardona about how to help schools across the country as they work to safely reopen for in-person learning. https://t.co/PXzbioGtjl — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Getting vaccinated isn’t just about protecting yourself from COVID-19—it’s also about protecting others, and in particular those who are immunocompromised or too young to get vaccinated. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

When it comes to caregiving policies like home & community-based services, the U.S. simply isn’t making the grade. If we want raise the wages of care workers, shorten waitlists, & improve the quality of care, we must pass the #BuildBackBetter plan. https://t.co/FP3BiUnKnV — PolitiTweet.org

At @JudiciaryDems hearing today, @DonnaHowardTX—a Texas lawmaker and former registered nurse—shared how Texas's harmful abortion ban is already making it near impossible for patients to get constitutionally protected health care and for providers to do their job. https://t.co/fEL0aUChpx — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

We have to #ActOnClimate. The cost of inaction—especially for kids today—is too high. https://t.co/0IJ6CPvtgV — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Texas’s abortion ban is the most restrictive in the country. But we didn’t get here overnight—this is the result of a decades-long effort by extreme anti-abortion lawmakers to peddle misinformation and pass laws to chip away our rights. I’m ready to fight back. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

RT @JudiciaryDems: S.B. 8 flouts the long-established precedent in Roe v. Wade. It uses a bounty hunter-style enforcement scheme designed… — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Texas's abortion ban is dangerous for patients, providers, and the future of #RoeVWade. Now more than ever, Congress must act to protect the constitutional right to abortion and ensure everyone can get the reproductive health care they want. — PolitiTweet.org

Booster shots of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine are now available. For more information about eligibility visit https://t.co/k9zXGMox5Z — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Republicans were given another opportunity to make sure the U.S. Government pays its bills—like every working family in America does—and they refused. The GOP are showing time and time again that they stand for economic sabotage and politics first, no matter who gets hurt. https://t.co/tc9cgSdWgb — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Democrats are trying to do the job families sent us here to do while Senate Republicans keep prioritizing political games at the expense of our economy, people's lives, and families' bank accounts. https://t.co/x2DZ3qLSpV — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I can't overstate how urgent the situation is for people in Texas—abortion rights are under attack and #RoeVWade is on the line. It’s going to take all of us working together to undo the damage the anti-abortion movement has caused in Texas & elsewhere. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Voting is how people have a voice in our democracy, and at a time when the right to vote is under attack in states across the country, it’s absolutely critical that everyone registers to vote and makes their voice heard. #NationalVoterRegistrationDay https://t.co/T9A4EeCmG2 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

A bill to keep the government open, avoid default, & provide relief to so many could be on its way to @POTUS’s desk now. Instead, Senate Rs blocked it w/ no regard for what default & shutdown would mean for people’s lives & bank accounts. This isn’t a game for anyone but the GOP. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

I’ve been fighting for paid leave since I first got into politics. This is our moment to get it done and make sure no worker has to choose between losing a paycheck and caring for themselves or a loved one. https://t.co/AqQEdbTzgZ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Patty Murray @PattyMurray

Extending the statewide eviction bridge was the right move by @GovInslee. People who are struggling to pay their rent shouldn’t be forced to lose their homes when federal dollars meant to help them are still on the table—& I'll keep working to help get people those resources. — PolitiTweet.org
