Today on International Women's Day we honor those who have long fought for gender equality. The SAVE America Act is a renewed attack on voting rights and would require many women who changed their name at marriage to submit additional paperwork or lose their right to vote. (1/2)
March 8 - International Women's Day - Celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women
I'll always cherish the honor of joining Rep. John Lewis on his pilgrimage across the bridge and will continue to honor those who have fought this battle the longest. We must recommit ourselves to block efforts to limit the right to vote. Every American's vote is sacred. (2/2)
Sen. Cantwell with Rep. John Lewis, other members of WA delegation, on Edmund Pettus Bridge.
61 years ago today unarmed Americans marching to demand their voting rights were brutally beaten as they crossed the Edmund Pettus Bridge. Now Republicans are pushing the SAVE America Act which would put new bureaucratic hurdles in place that make it harder to register. (1/2)
Edmund Pettus Bridge on Bloody Sunday
Along with rising gas and energy costs, plus an expensive unauthorized war creating immense market uncertainty, families already stressed by the high cost of living now must worry about losing their job. (2/3)
I hope the Coast Guard will now be able to get back to its core mission: serving the American people by revitalizing search and rescue, supporting robust maritime trade, and boosting American fisheries. (3/3)
Americans have the right to protest and speak freely and do so without fear of getting shot or being beaten by ICE agents. Noem allowed immigration enforcement officials to abuse their power and authority, making America less secure, not more. (2/3)

He must also send his military and civilian leadership team before the people’s representatives in the House and the Senate to explain where we are and where he is taking us. (5/6)
... and rebuilding the international coalition of allies and partners forged to stop Iran from getting a nuclear weapon by having a vigorous inspection regime like the one under the 2015 Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA). (3/6)
The President should not have initiated a large-scale attack on Iran without Congressional approval, the support of key allies around the world, or having made his case to the American people. (1/6)
