Plaskett in Washington D.C., St. Croix, and St. Thomas will be closed from Wednesday, July 3rd through Friday, July 5th in observance of the U.S. Virgin Islands Emancipation Day and the Independence Day holidays. All offices will reopen on Monday, July 8th.\n\nThis upcoming July 3rd marks the 176th year since our enslaved ancestors in the Danish West Indies secured their freedom by way of violent resistance in Frederiksted in 1848. Emancipation Day is a day of remembrance where we as Virgin Islanders pay homage to our ancestors and reflect on their bravery and courage. This significant day, followed closely by July 4th, Independence Day, highlights the American enduring pursuit of freedom and justice. Together these days remind us of the relentless fight for equity and equality.\n\nShould you need assistance during those days when the offices are closed, please call 340-778-5900 on St. Croix or 340-774-4408 on St. Thomas, leave a message and someone will respond in short order.", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T21:24:45Z"]], "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://plaskett.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=4503"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9294981136918068, "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"}
