Without a single Republican vote they passed a $1.9 trillion \u2018COVID relief\u2019 bill back in March, and they have a combined $5.5 trillion infrastructure and budget reconciliation package in the pipeline as well. It\u2019s unfortunate that Democrats want American taxpayers to give them a blank check to fund President Biden and Speaker Pelosi\u2019s socialist agenda. I certainly wont stand for this or aid them in creating trillions of dollars in new debt,\u201d said Congressman Fitzgerald.\n\n###\n\nCongressman Scott Fitzgerald was sworn in to the 117th Congress on January 3, 2021 and is proud to represent Wisconsin\u2019s Fifth Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:24:51Z"]], "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://fitzgerald.house.gov/media/press-releases/democrats-vote-again-suspend-debt-ceiling-write-blank-check-their-partisan"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.8471190705895424, "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"}
