Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland has recently highlighted her ongoing legislative and advocacy work through a series of posts on her official Twitter account. The tweets, published between March 7 and March 9, 2026, cover topics ranging from healthcare access in Pierce County to women’s rights and tribal land ownership.

On March 7, Strickland shared her visit with a local health provider: “It was good to meet with the team at Comprehensive Life Resources, a one stop shop for behavioral and physical health. Serving 4.5K residents in Pierce County, this center is working to fill community gaps left behind by @POTUS’ cuts to #Medicaid.”

The following day, she marked International Women’s Day by reiterating her commitment to gender equality: “On #InternationalWomensDay we recommit ourselves to advocating for women’s rights both at home and abroad. We must continue fighting for security, health, safety, and justice for all women, at all levels, in all places.” (March 8).

On March 9, Strickland addressed Indigenous land rights: “Clear Creek Hatchery and the land it sits on has historically belonged to the Nisqually Tribe. That’s why I’m fighting to restore their ownership rights. Read: https://t.co/PvRIMOQtCz”

Strickland’s recent statements reflect her engagement with local healthcare issues—specifically Medicaid funding shortfalls—her support for women’s rights globally on International Women’s Day, and efforts related to tribal sovereignty over ancestral lands.

Although these tweets focus on federal issues in Washington state where she serves as Congresswoman, it is notable that Marilyn Strickland previously served as a Republican representative in North Carolina’s State House beginning in 2017 after succeeding James Langdon Jr.
