Ruben Gallego (AZ-07) released the following statement:\n\u201cToday, House Republicans could have taken action on the bipartisan DREAM Act, preventing the deportation of patriotic young people who want to make positive contributions to our society and our economy.\n\u201cThey could have held a serious discussion on the gun violence epidemic in our country, and ways we can act together to prevent more families from enduring the pain we see right now in Las Vegas.\n\u201cThey could have found ways to help provide relief to the 3.5 million American citizens in Puerto Rico whose lives and livelihoods are still at risk nearly two weeks after Hurricane Maria.\n\u201cInstead, they decided to hold yet another vote to attack women\u2019s health care and chip away at a woman\u2019s right to choose \u2013 this time, pushing a blanket ban on all abortions after 20 weeks with no meaningful exception to protect a woman\u2019s health. The bill requires rape victims to jump through hoops in order to obtain an abortion, and threatens doctors with fines or imprisonment for providing critically-needed and constitutionally protected care to their patients.\n\u201cNot only is H.R. 36 unconstitutional, it is a thinly veiled attempt by the GOP to stifle a woman\u2019s right to consult with her doctor and make medical care decisions \u2013 sometimes difficult ones \u2013 that will protect her health and future fertility.\n\u201cThe GOP agenda is out of touch with the needs and priorities of the American people. It\u2019s time for them to reset their course \u2013 and my Democratic colleagues and I are here and ready to work with them when they do.\u201d\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://rubengallego.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/rep-gallego-misguided-unconstitutional-gop-attempt-restrict-women-s"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5560227911919355, "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"}
