04/17/2018 Tweet - "There's a good reason we make TV & radio stations disclose who buys the political ads they air--it helps ensure the integrity of our political process. Congress should pass the Honest Ads Act & start requiring our internet companies to provide the same transparency."
04/17/2018 Tweet - "As people finish preparing their taxes, it's already clear that the Trump-GOP tax bill is overwhelmingly benefitting CEOs and wealthy shareholders--not workers and families."
04/04/2018 Tweet - "After Republicans in Congress gave corporations a massive tax cut, workers deserve to know if employers plan to pad their own pockets or invest in their employees."
04/04/2018 Tweet - "When corporations are negotiating with unions, workers deserve to know if the billions corporations received from the GOP tax bill is going toward investing in workers or into the pockets of executives."
02/27/2018 Tweet - "From jamming through massive tax cuts for the richest Americans, to moving to allow companies to charge more for internet access, it's obvious that the Trump Administration's partisan agenda is a windfall for wealthy corporations--not working families."
02/12/2018 Tweet - "Budgets are statements of values and priorities, and President Trump made it clear that he puts tax cuts for rich ahead of middle class priorities."
02/01/2018 Tweet - "After spending a year sowing division in our communities & working around the clock to make the wealthiest families & corporations richer at the expense of working families, it's hard to take any of President Trump's promises too seriously."
01/30/2018 Tweet - "The tax plan that Republicans and President Trump jammed through Congress gave massive tax cuts to the wealthiest Americans, biggest corporations, President Trump, his family, and the vast majority of his cabinet. #SOTU"
01/29/2018 Tweet - "In other words, the notion that corporate tax cuts will spur economic growth and all kinds of spending by "job creators" is a sham" -- great column from @columbian on some of the many ways the GOP tax bill is hurting WA's working families:"
01/23/2018 Tweet - "It says a lot that President Trump and Republicans were happy to jam through tax breaks and giveaways for corporations and billionaires, but want to put up new barriers to critical health care for some of the most vulnerable in our communities."

01/11/2018 Tweet - "Republicans just spent the last year sabotaging families' health care & jamming through tax cuts for the wealthiest few. Now, one of @realDonaldTrump's first priorities is to pull the rug out from people who simply want affordable care they can rely on."
01/10/2018 Tweet - "The GOP tax plan will cost 1000x more than it would to fund CHIP for 9 million children nationwide, and it's clearer than ever where Republicans' priorities lie."
01/08/2018 Tweet - "It speaks volumes that this Republican-controlled Congress spent the last months of 2017 giving tax breaks to massive corporations and the wealthiest instead of taking care of the health needs of children and families."
01/03/2018 Tweet - "Good read from @Wenatcheeworld on another consequence of the GOP tax plan: "No one is suggesting that giving will cease but…it's going to make it tougher for our nonprofits."
01/02/2018 Tweet - "As details of Republican's rushed tax plan continue to unfold, here's a good read on how local WA charities may be forced to do more with less to help working families (Special Character)"
01/02/2018 Tweet - "Reminder: This Republican-controlled Congress spent the last months of the year giving tax breaks to massive corporations and the wealthiest instead of taking care of the health needs of children and families. It's past time for a solution to fund CHIP."
12/21/2017 Tweet - "This is no way to run the government and no way to treat people who are looking to Congress for solutions and I am going to do everything I can to make sure this Republican-controlled Congress does its job for our young people and families without any further delay."

12/19/2017 Tweet - "Our communities need much more than what will "trickle down" from the GOP's huge tax cuts for the wealthiest families & corporations. It's not too late for Republicans to reverse course & work on a plan that actually helps working people"
12/19/2017 Tweet - "Republicans need to think about the damage they are causing to the middle class, our economy, our national debt, and our health care--and change course, right now."
