Israel has a right to exist and to defend itself, and as the Biden administration and my colleagues in Congress work to understand Israel\u2019s needs, I pledge my support for humanitarian and military aid to Israel and her people. I too offer my moral support and prayers.\n\n\u201cIn all times, including times of war, we must hold human life sacred and protect it. In war, this is especially true of civilian life. Hamas\u2019 brutal and indiscriminate violence reveals the contempt with which they hold the very existence of Jews and the people of Israel. But their actions, and the response they knew they would trigger, demonstrate also how little they care for the lives of the millions of Palestinian civilians trapped in the Gaza Strip, for whom they claim they fight.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T00:49:26Z"]], "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://mcgarvey.house.gov/media/press-releases/congressman-mcgarveys-statement-ongoing-violence-israel"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8026559371501207, "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"}
