Senator Chuck Schumer announced today that the Democrats would have enough votes to bring at least a temporary end to the federal government shutdown. The face of one senator behind Schumer during his announcement said it all, though not everybody knew who she was:

It’s an easy answer:
Patty Murray my Senator. Washington's first female U.S. senator. She is currently the 3rd most senior Democrat.

It appears Rosie is telling a female senator to smile more. https://t.co/vHagVDkHIb

O’Donnell didn’t make many new fans on her side of the aisle with that question:
Women don't need to always SMILE. We aren't decoration for your world. #feminism #dowhatiwant #Smile #women #WomenEmpowerment #youarentthebossofme

That is my senator from Washington State, Patty Murray
Should anyone be smiling at any of this?— Korey Peterson (@koreydai) January 22, 2018

That is Patty Murray and she's a United States Senator. Smiling is not a requirement for her job (or for any woman, for that matter). https://t.co/5lyvq3dbB1

That's Senator Murray – that's what she's looks like, it's her face. She's smart, a fighter – I WISH she was my senator. I sympathize with her, my mouth is downtown too and I have people telling to "smile" all of time.

THIS is the most competent & impactful Democratic lawmaker on Capitol Hill @Rosie. Why are you always in a fight?

Christ. Way to go. *That woman* is Senator Patty Murray of WA, the second most senior female Senator. Chair of the HELP Committee.

Patty Murray (D) Washington – great senator, not amused. Neither am I.
