Fitch\u2019s downgrade should be seen as exactly what it is \u2014 a warning that continuing down the path of out-of-control borrowing will and does have serious consequences.\u201d\n\nBack to News", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T00:30:18Z"]], "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://schweikert.house.gov/2023/08/01/schweikert-statement-on-fitch-downgrading-the-u-s-credit-rating/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7687550969421864, "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"}
