It gives us some time to reflect on the tremendous blessings of being an American and what this country has to offer. For me its a time to recommit here on Capitol Hill to ensuring that every person has the opportunity to fulfill their version of the American dream.\nAs we approach the week ahead there are a number of bills that are really important in that effort. Coming from the Pacific Northwest, I always like to highlight the important role that hydropower plays in meeting important energy needs in this country. Hydropower is clean, its renewable, its affordable, and its reliable.\nWe could double hydropower without building another dam in this country simply by encouraging investment, technology, and streamlining the permitting process. In addition to that we could create hundreds of thousands of jobs.\nThere are all kinds of commonsense, bipartisan solutions. Its about unleashing Americans and American ingenuity.\nIm proud to be a part of what we are advancing this weekmaking government work better for those it was elected to represent.", 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/unleashing-american-ingenuity/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8687777444720268, "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"}
