Flood said. \u201cThe trial has been very helpful because it\u2019s shown increased line speeds don\u2019t degrade workplace safety. The USDA needs to help processors operate at full capacity, so we can help deliver the food we need to feed America and the world.\u201d\n\nPreviously, Congressman Flood joined his colleagues to urge the USDA to extend the Time-Limited Trial for pork processing plants to run at increased line speeds in the New Swine Inspection System (NSIS.) The NSIS temporarily waived line speed limits at six establishments to collect data that would be used to evaluate the impact of increased line speed on workers.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T01:01:09Z"]], "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://flood.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-flood-secures-line-speed-trial-extension-pork-producers-calls"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5625141095370054, "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"}
