I will work with any Republicans willing to put science and facts over politics and ideology to push out RFK Jr. That man is a serious threat to public health and American lives. It's never too late to do the right thing. Join me in calling for RFK Jr. to be fired immediately.
Millions of Americans are about to get a notice letting them know their health care premiums are going to SKYROCKET. Families are going to face higher costs & potentially even lose their coverage. Democrats have a bill to stop it, but Republicans are REFUSING to even lift a finger.
The President is casually suggesting he will go to “war” against an American city. Today it’s Chicago, tomorrow it might be Seattle. It’s not funny or amusing. I’ll be fighting back in Congress but remember: he WANTS you to think your voices and votes don’t matter—they do.
The Enchantments in the Cascades is a beautiful stretch of land across 900 miles of trails. Last year, there were 11 wilderness rangers patrolling the Enchantments. This year, there’s ONE—thanks to Trump. I'm fighting to fund our forest service and SAVE OUR PUBLIC LANDS.
E.J. Antoni is unwell—he is apparently a disturbed, hateful, conspiracy-driven man. Not only is he an unqualified, partisan hack, but apparently, he has been a prolific promoter of vile, hate-filled screeds. This kind of revolting behavior should be a red line for all Senators.
Oh yeah, this will really help him win that Nobel Peace Prize. 🙄 Trump was a draft dodger and couldn't care less about our servicemembers, but he'll gladly puff his chest and warmonger because the consequences will never touch him.
We need a Secretary of Health and Human Services. Not a Secretary of Conspiracies. Not a Secretary of Measles and Food Poisoning. Not a Secretary of Cancelled Research and Chemtrail Nonsense. RFK Jr. is burning down our public health system from the inside. Fire him.
Of course this far-right fanatic wants LESS oversight in government.   He doesn't want the American people to know about how he's breaking the law, wasting their money, and stealing taxpayer funds from them.   GAO will stay as long as I have anything to say about it.
Trump moved a convicted pedophile and child sex trafficker to a "Country Club" prison. He's choosing to stand up for the most notorious pedophile in history rather than the victims calling for justice and transparency. He ran on releasing the Epstein files—release them then.
It’s important for states like Washington to step up to protect public health, but diseases don't recognize borders. We still need a functioning and trustworthy federal health department—for that to happen, RFK Jr. must be fired immediately.
If House Republicans try to jam through a partisan CR without any input from Democratic members of Congress, and they suddenly find that they don’t have the votes they need from our caucus to fund the government? Well then, THAT is a Republican shutdown.
I am not going to support the confirmation of a federal prosecutor who wants to rewrite the basic history of January 6th and who believes the overturning of Roe v. Wade was the right decision.   Serrano is far out of step with Washington state values.
I'll keep saying it: RFK Jr. is a deadly threat to our public health and safety.   He is razing CDC, NIH, and other health agencies to the ground—putting politics and deranged conspiracy theories over science.   We need bipartisan oversight immediately, and he must be FIRED.
Sen. Patty Murray is calling for RFK Jr. to be fired. "We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what's left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired." "I hope my Republican colleagues who have come to regret their vote to confirm RFK Jr. will join me."
