Tonight\u2019s State of the Union made clear to the American people and the world that the United States is once again leading with confidence and strength.\n\nHere at home, families are feeling the difference. Murders, overall violent crime and property crime are at their lowest in decades, and our southern border is finally secure, with illegal crossings at their lowest levels since the 1970s. That means safer streets, stronger communities, and a renewed sense of order and stability.\n\nHouse Republicans have been laser-focused on lowering costs for everyday Americans. We delivered historic, broad-based tax relief, so working families can keep more of what they earn, small businesses can grow, and retirees can stretch their savings further. Governor Ferguson and Democrats in Olympia are pushing through an unconstitutional income tax, while Republicans in Washington DC, are moving in the opposite direction: delivering real, historic tax relief for the people we serve.\n\nI\u2019ll keep fighting to make sure families in Eastern Washington feel that progress where it matters most \u2013 at home.\u201c", 1, "2026-05-07T13:38:59Z", "2026-05-07T13:40:28Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://baumgartner.house.gov/2026/02/24/congressman-baumgartner-responds-to-president-trumps-state-of-the-union-address/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.514347968623042, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
