UW is leading the way in AI research—and the federal funding I secured will advance the cutting-edge work that’s already happening in a big way. There's incredible potential here, but I also want to ensure AI works for the average American—not just CEOs & billionaires.

Trump has turned our closest allies against us and quite literally driven them into the arms of our adversaries.

NO—you're not "drinking other people's abortions." YES—anti-abortion activists are weaponizing environmental laws to rip away abortion care.

Republicans think it's too expensive to protect Americans' health care but they'll shovel money at Pete Hegseth for a $125 million vanity rebrand????

Trump's "Department of War" rebrand could cost $125 million

The CBO cautioned its estimate is "uncertain," however, because the Pentagon declined to share info.

Didn't Trump promise to LOWER prices on Day One?

Despite Trump’s Claims, Grocery Prices Are Rising

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 15(source)

I said I would tear up Trump's budget and write a new one—and that's what I made sure we did. The Senate passed 3 bills to fund everything from flood control projects to clean energy research, & more. I'm going to make sure CONGRESS decides how taxpayer funds get spent—not Trump.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 15(source)

No one should ignore these kinds of statements just because the President is delusional. We need to take it at face value. This is undemocratic and un-American. Oh, and by the way, we WILL have elections whether Trump thinks we should or not.

Trump to Reuters about the midterm elections: "When you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election." www.reuters.com/world/us/fiv...

MANAGING MIDTERM EXPECTATIONS
The president expressed frustration that his Republican Party could lose control of the U.S. House of Representatives or the Senate in this year’s midterm elections, citing historical trends that have seen the party in power lose seats in the second year of a presidency.
“It's some deep psychological thing, but when you win the presidency, you don't win the midterms,” Trump said. He boasted that he had accomplished so much that “when you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election.”

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 15(source)

It took over a DECADE for Donald Trump to release a health care "plan", one entire page! And it will do absolutely NOTHING to stop your premiums from more than doubling.

Trump Repackages Random Ideas Into ‘Great Healthcare Plan’

Unfortunately, the vague “plan” Trump unexpectedly dropped will probably just kill off bipartisan health-care efforts in Congress.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 15(source)

The people in Minneapolis are not creating chaos—Trump is. ICE is completely out of control. Trump is terrorizing an entire city as an act of political retribution. It's Minneapolis today, it could be Seattle or New York tomorrow. Speaking up matters right now.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 15(source)

Today, first responders tackling the fentanyl crisis spent the day planning layoffs instead of helping people. More absurd, pointless chaos from RFK Jr. and this administration.

White House reverses $2 billion cut to mental health, addiction grants

Many of the affected grant programs had bipartisan support and President Donald Trump has supported them in the past.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

While the goons in this administration try to be cute about racist dog whistles, it's important to affirm that we reject their hateful vision of America. Diversity IS a strength. Out of many, we are one. THAT'S America. Greatest Democracy on Earth—if we can keep it. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

Trump & RFK Jr. just ripped away billions to help communities tackle the fentanyl crisis & get mental health care. So much for Make America Healthy Again & saving Americans from addiction. Republicans need to join me in demanding this gets reversed.

HHS cuts $2 billion in mental health, addiction grants

Many of the affected grant programs have bipartisan support and President Donald Trump has supported them in the past.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

I'm really tired of Republicans claiming they care about "protecting women" when all they mean is taking away women’s ability to make decisions about their own bodies.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

Anti-abortion extremists are trying to weaponize the EPA against women by saying that medication abortion is POISONING THE WATER SUPPLY and that people are "drinking each other's abortions." Here's what Republicans' star witness had to say. This is just insane.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

BREAKING: Senate Republicans just blocked an extension of the ACA tax credits. AGAIN. This legislation passed the House with BIPARTISAN support. Republicans are playing games while your health care premiums more than double.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

If Republicans can find time to hold a sham hearing on medication abortion, there is no reason RFK Jr. can't come to the Committee and answer for his dangerous anti-vax agenda that is putting children and families at risk.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

Kicking off Senate Republicans' sham hearing on medication abortion by making absolutely clear: MIFEPRISTONE IS SAFE AND EFFECTIVE. This hearing is not about science. It's about Republicans trying to ban abortion nationwide.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

I have exactly zero intention of letting Donald Trump and Russ Vought decide how taxpayer dollars get spent. I am fighting to make sure Congress does its job to pass funding bills so the American PEOPLE, through their representatives, decide where our money goes—NOT Trump.

Senator Patty Murray@murray.senate.govJan 14(source)

Let's be clear: this is a direct result of Republicans REFUSING to extend the ACA tax credits. The Senate could vote ANY DAY to extend them and help bring down your health care costs, but Leader Thune is refusing.

It is genuinely insane to see Republicans give credence to Trump's DELUSION that America should take over Greenland. We're talking about a NATO ally! Every member of Congress should have no problem SHUTTING THIS DOWN!

Republican introduces bill seeking to make Greenland 51st state

Rep. Randy Fine (R-Fla.) has introduced a bill to make Greenland the 51st state in the U.S., following President Trump’s recent push to acquire the Danish territory. The “Greenland Annexation and S…
