Thanks to their efforts, we\u2019ve removed 1,000 pounds of tar balls from our beaches. I want to encourage the Coast Guard to continue to investigate the source of the oil contamination that caused the tar balls. In addition, I asked them to investigate any connection between the incidents in New Jersey and New York to determine if there is a possible link between the debris recovered in New York. I continue to stand ready to help deliver whatever resources are necessary to make sure our coast has what it needs to clean up the contamination.\u201d", 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://pallone.house.gov/media/press-releases/pallone-statement-us-coast-guard-clean-oil-and-tar-balls-northern-monmouth"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9177760221064091, "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"}
