Doug Collins join us for this important discussion. The only way to do this right is to hear directly from people who\u2019ve experienced it, to listen, and to hear their stories and ideas,\u201d said McMorris Rodgers. \u201cThis was a great discussion and I look forward to continuing these important conversations about the future of our Eastern Washington community.\u201d\n\u201cThoughtful justice reform involves listening to our neighbors. It means we\u2019re committed to learning from the people who see opportunities to build stronger, safer communities,\u201d said Collins. \u201cConversations like these open the doors to solutions for preventing crime and promoting compassion, and I\u2019m grateful to join my friend Cathy McMorris Rodgers and the Spokane community for today\u2019s exchange.\u201d\nIn case you missed it, you can watch some of the forum on the Congresswoman\u2019s Facebook page here:\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://mcmorris.house.gov/mcmorris-rodgers-collins-join-criminal-justice-reform-forum/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9653919842094183, "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"}
