As part of these efforts, I have fought the Biden Labor Department\u2019s misguided Fiduciary Rule that severely limits access to financial advice for millions of Americans. If implemented, this irresponsible rule would usurp Congress\u2019s authority and undermine the important work we have done over the past five years to support Main Street investors and their families. People deserve to have robust choices when they are looking to save for retirement, not an artificially constrained market due to an overbearing federal government. Critically, this rule lacks the clear congressional authorization it needs for a regulatory change of this magnitude, and the Fifth Circuit should recognize that fact in their ruling.\u201d", 1, "2026-04-04T05:28:40Z", "2026-04-04T05:30:10Z"]], "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://wagner.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/wagner-leads-amicus-brief-challenging-biden-department-labors-harmful"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.3647968880832195, "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"}
