Senator Murray Vows to Fight Trump-Pence Administration’s Latest Radical Attack on Women’s Access to Health Care

New domestic gag rule would forbid health care providers who receive federal family planning funds from discussing the full range of reproductive health care options with patients

Senator Murray: “Let me be clear: President Trump and Vice President Pence’s opinions have no place in a woman’s conversations with her doctor about her health care—and I and women nationwide are going to fight this deeply harmful, ideological effort every step of the way”

Earlier this week Senator Murray led a letter with over 200 members of Congress urging the Administration against this radical step – LINK

(Washington, D.C.)  – Today, Senator Patty Murray (D-WA), top Democrat on the Senate health committee, released the following statement in response to news that the Trump Administration plans to announce drastic changes to the Title X program that would undermine women’s access to health care and reproductive services by placing new restrictions on federal family planning funds.  

“This is a brazen and direct attempt by the Trump-Pence Administration to interfere with women’s access to health care and ability to control their own health care decisions. It could mean that doctors and health care providers could lose federal funding for so much as mentioning abortion to their own patients, and it could result in millions of people across the country losing access to basic health care services like cancer screenings and contraception. Let me be clear: President Trump and Vice President Pence’s opinions have no place in a woman’s conversations with her doctor about her health care—and I and women nationwide are going to fight this deeply harmful, ideological effort every step of the way.”

The WA state Democrats are starting to find blind faith in the Super Delegate “mom in tennis shoes” hard to stomach.

I hope she decides not to run for reelection like so many others.

There IS something they do and do rather well, which is come up with fronts to launder funny-money through. It's interesting that Planned Parenthood has been steadily contracting in providing their alleged primary function - women's health - yet are flush with cash to pour into various political agendas. They are a banking institution unto themselves - am sure various laws are being broken, which should be of interest to those who are responsible for enforcing them.

The Osama Mamma wore the tennis shoes as a disguise. She fooled the citizens of Washington State into thinking she was just a good ol’ mamma. Little did they know she was a she-wolf in sheep’s clothing: a Marxist.

Socialist Alternative, a radical Marxist-Leninist-Trotskyite political party, notes in a 2015 article on their website, “The labor movement and progressive activists made major efforts to elect Washington State Senators Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell.”

Those living under the Marxist spell of the far left DemonRAT Party in Washington State know that that they are nothing but open wallets to keep these tax-and-spend money distributors in power.

This vile despicable women makes the hair on my neck stand up. She is a grand example of how to game the systems. I cringe that I need to live in her state because she sure as all get out doesn’t represent for me.

When she was first elected, we in WA dubbed her Stinky Shoe ...

I worked for a senate committee in the WA state leg the same time Patsy Murphy was a state sen. When there was floor discussion, the sound would be pumped into committee offices. One of our staff used to jump up on a desk and turn the volume off when Stinky Shoe would speak on the floor.

No other Senator has fought harder to avoid seeing a dentist than she has.

She'd even embarrass the British.

It’s always been curious to me, regardless of one’s feelings for Planned Parenthood, why a non-government organization received federal funds.

You want to slaughter babies pay for it yourselves. Slaughtering babies is not healthcare it is infanticide.

She won 59% of the vote in 2016, her highest percentage ever:

Even if she didn’t run again, she’ll have spent 30 years in the Senate.

Patty Murray remains the stupidest woman in the U.S.Senate. The stupidest man, of course, is little Bobby Casey from PA

If the mother is healthy and the fetus is healthy how is an abortion about healthcare?

Let me be clear: EVERY woman who has ever solicited for the murder of her child is a MURDERESS, and should be jailed or executed. “Doctors” too, who do such evil.
