The bills, H.R. 3195, the Superior National Forest Restoration Act, and H.Con.Res.34, can now be considered for a vote by the full House of Representatives.\n\n\u201cAll options are on the table to overturn the Biden Administration\u2019s mineral withdrawal and let miners mine in the district I represent,\u201d said Congressman Stauber. \u201cI have been working with my colleagues to build support for these proposals, including through hosting a field hearing on the Iron Range earlier this month, and I\u2019m glad to see prompt movement through the Natural Resources Committee. I am thankful for the growing support on this issue, not only with my colleagues on the House Natural Resources Committee, but in Congress as a whole. More and more of us know that our mining way of life is at stake, and today we are one step closer to getting shovels in the ground to create jobs, secure our domestic supply chains and reestablish American mineral security.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-07T23:55:44Z"]], "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://stauber.house.gov/media/press-releases/stauber-mining-bills-pass-natural-resources-committee-votes-head-house-floor"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.874167075380683, "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"}
