We must dedicate ourselves to meeting those commitments.\u00a0 Doing so will make us a stronger nation.\u00a0\r\n\u201cI appreciate that on Veterans Day the world will witness an American people united in its appreciation of the men and women who have served and fought for our republic.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z", "2026-03-30T12:14:52Z"]], "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.cochran.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/news-releases?ContentRecord_id=4f946c05-3c7f-497d-8b80-46f0f33b5fe9"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.1876141652464867, "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"}
