Their shamelessly gerrymandered district map suppresses the voices of everyday people in favor of a few extremist politicians. I am heartbroken this means Congresswoman Kathy Manning will not be running for re-election.\n\n\u201cSince her first day in Washington, Congresswoman Manning has been a steadfast champion for families and freedom. I have been proud to call her a partner in House Democrats\u2019 work to expand early childhood education and protect reproductive freedom. After the Dobbs decision, she jumped into action and introduced the Right to Contraception Act \u2014 standing up for a woman\u2019s basic right to control her own body.\n\n\u201cAs Vice Ranking Member of the Foreign Affairs Committee, Congresswoman Manning has faced burgeoning global crises with vision and savvy. And as Co-Chair of the House Bipartisan Task Force for Combating Antisemitism, she has offered essential leadership in the fight against hate.\n\n\u201cI\u2019m deeply grateful for Kathy\u2019s time in Congress, and I wish her all the best in what comes next.\u201d\n\n# # #", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T01:14:16Z"]], "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://katherineclark.house.gov/press-releases?ID=BCC61FF9-365B-4846-BB4D-507D7552F36B"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9881111327558756, "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"}
