The Senate bill doesn't do any better,\"\u00a0said Congressman Darrell Issa.\u00a0\"California families are already forced to endure some of\u00a0the highest state sales and income tax rates in the nation -- they deserve to see tax relief too. I oppose both proposals in their current form and I will continue to fight\u00a0for tax\u00a0relief that benefits ALL of our nation's taxpayers -- regardless of where they live. And if such a deal cannot be reached, the bill will not earn my support.\"\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "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/news-room/press-releases/issa-opposes-house-senate-tax-bills"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.7474079504609108, "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"}
