House Republicans abandoned their own agreement, and they chose to bend to the will of Elon Musk and President-elect Trump. This is no way to govern. And it raises deeply troubling issues about how the Republican majority will try to govern next year. This was entirely avoidable and is not a responsible way to govern.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:07:19Z"]], "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://fletcher.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=5578"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7355120033025742, "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"}
