Mike Levin (CA-49) today released the following statement upon the return of U.S. Navy Lt. Ridge Alkonis back to the United States.\n\n\u201cThis is the best news of the holiday season. I\u2019ve had the opportunity to work on Lt. Ridge Alkonis\u2019 behalf for nearly two and a half years, and through those efforts met his wonderful wife Brittany, his kids, and his parents.\n\n\u201cThey and Ridge are beyond deserving of this long overdue day.\n\n\u201cToday would not be possible without the efforts of so many across the Congress, the Biden-Harris Administration, and the world. Now that we are over the largest hurdle and Ridge is on his way back to the U.S., we must take the last steps necessary to ensure his release and bring him home.\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://levin.house.gov/media/press-releases/rep-mike-levins-statement-on-the-return-of-navy-lt-ridge-alkonis-to-the-united-states"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.2891902588307858, "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"}
