That\u2019s why Congress is reaffirming our country\u2019s steadfast commitment to the Philippines and telling the truth about the PRC\u2019s campaign of coercion in a region where their sovereignty does not reach. I thank my colleagues from both sides of the aisle for making this resolution a reality,\u201d said Rep. Issa.\n\nThe text of the resolution can be found here.", 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://issa.house.gov/media/press-releases/icymi-issa-bera-waltz-vargas-reaffirm-us-philippines-alliance-condemn-prc"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8636442944407463, "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"}
