We voted here 13 different times to end the war. And what we know, as a matter of fact, is while this war is going on, our kids are dying at the same time that this President\u2019s children are getting rich. The cost of the war is being borne by working-class people in our country, the ones who are not only being killed but those who are injured. We see the gas prices, the utility prices, the grocery prices. The cost of the war is being borne by working-class people in our country, and so it\u2019s beyond a point of being concerned; it absolutely must end,\u201d said Senator Alsobrooks during the interview.\n\n\u201cFighting for the status quo is over. Nobody wants the status quo. I think that everyone is hungry at this point for tremendous change\u2026 we need a change in our country for everyday hardworking people who do everything right and still cannot make it. That\u2019s the message,\u201d continued Senator Alsobrooks.\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-05T07:37:37Z", "2026-08-05T07:38:44Z"]], "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://www.alsobrooks.senate.gov/news/press-releases/icymi-alsobrooks-on-ms-now-americans-are-done-settling-for-the-status-quo/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.8131821416318417, "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"}
