When we return to Washington in November, I urge my Republican colleagues to finally come to the table and work with Democrats to address our nation\u2019s priorities and pass bipartisan government funding legislation.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T21:43:57Z"]], "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://ross.house.gov/2024/9/congresswoman-ross-statement-on-voting-to-avert-a-government-shutdown"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9605609811842442, "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"}
