We do not have any time to waste.\n\n###", 1, "2026-04-02T05:33:17Z", "2026-04-02T05:34:59Z"]], "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://fields.house.gov/media/press-releases/official-statement-discharge-petition-force-vote-extension-aca-subsidies"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.928626861423254, "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"}
