Tenney heard directly from health care administrators about the challenges caused by the Democrat shutdown and their proposal to cut $50 billion intended to modernize and sustain rural hospitals over the next five years that was passed as a part of President Trump\u2019s Working Families Tax Cut. This targeted relief distributed through the Rural Health Transformation Program is designed to help facilities recruit staff, expand services, and keep vital programs operating in small communities.\n\n\u201cThe Democrat shutdown is hurting our rural hospitals and the patients who depend on them,\u201d said Congresswoman Claudia Tenney. \u201cThese facilities are lifelines for our communities, providing emergency care, cancer treatment, maternity services, and long-term care. President Trump\u2019s Working Family Tax Cut created a dedicated rural hospital fund to strengthen facilities like Noyes and Thompson, but Democrats are now trying to gut that support to pay for their far-left wish list. I will continue fighting to protect these funds and ensure our hospitals have the resources they need to save lives and serve families across Upstate New York.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:32:54Z"]], "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://tenney.house.gov/media/press-releases/congresswoman-tenney-visits-local-hospitals-calls-protecting-rural-health"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.7423799727112055, "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"}
