Patty Murray: “The question we have to ask ourselves all the time is: will this reauthorization of the Higher Education Act leave…”

While Trump spends tax dollars on ads promoting himself, Congress needs to reassert its powers to help people, and it’s past time Republicans join us in that fight.

I will keep pushing for that — abortion care should always be accessible and covered, no matter where you get health care or what type of insurance you have.

These are funds Congress has delivered on a bipartisan basis and should be helping people—not cut off by a president more focused on building a ballroom than investing in families.

We should not have to remind you that using government funding to create or air political ads like the ones that have been running over the last few days is illegal and a shockingly corrupt misuse of taxpayer dollars.
