Phyllis Gutiérrez Kenney was a trailblazer, serving 14 years in the Leg. championing immigrant rights, workforce development, & ed access. Her family was one of the earliest Mexican families in the Yakima Valley. Her legacy lives on. #WAleg #Womenshistorymonth

What's disrespectful is to continue peddling this truncated quote that completely misrepresents what was said on the floor of the House. Watch what was actually said before believing any random graphic you see on the internet. #waleg

Amplifying this falsity to point out that this is NOT what was said and is a misrepresentation of the facts. Really sad that it has come to this in #waleg. Here's what was actually said.
The chair of the @WAHouseDems caucus, Rep. Ortiz-Self, doesn’t like parents having access to their children or what they are learning in taxpayer funded schools. Give her office a call and tell her how you feel!.(360) 786-7972. #waleg

To absolutely NO ONE'S surprise, this is not the full quote. You want to know what was actually said & how Rep. Ortiz-Self was actually advocating for ALL parents? Watch for yourself. This tweet is ridiculous. #waleg

On Aug. 10, 1890, Fay Fuller became the first woman to summit Mount Rainier—rocking a flannel bloomer suit (scandalous!), blackened face for sun protection, & pure grit. She later helped create Mount Rainier National Park & co-founded climbing clubs. #WomensHistoryMonth

When Susan B. Anthony toured the PNW in 1871 with Abigail Scott Duniway, critics feared voting would erode women’s "domestic supremacy.". In 1910, after years of advocacy, Washington finally secured women’s suffrage, paving the way. #WomensHistoryMonth

Oh no, we're still fighting racism. The audacity.
Despite Washington’s looming multi-billion-dollar deficit, House Democrats are pushing a bill to expand interest-free loans and closing cost assistance to individuals earning up to $172k, paid for by document fees charged to taxpayers. #waleg
