Issa and his colleagues have recklessly moved forward with this resolution for political gain alone.\n\nThis baseless action is a distraction from the real work we should be doing \u2013 creating jobs and strengthening the middle class. We have a responsibility to conduct meaningful and responsible oversight in government, but today's vote fails to meet those requirements. I cannot and will not participate in a vote that so vehemently disregards the proud history of this institution.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T21:11:16Z"]], "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://carson.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-carson-calls-holder-vote-political-stunt"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8687989320605993, "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"}
