Throughout the 119th Congress, Chair Ernst plans to recognize a small business in each of Iowa's 99 counties.\n\n\u201cIt\u2019s prime time to recognize Ludlow\u2019s Steakhouse,\u201d said Chair Ernst. \u201cThrough their entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to their employees and community, the Pershys have grown Ludlow\u2019s Steakhouse into a Wayne County staple \u2014 a job truly well done.\u201d\n\nFor more than two decades, Ludlow\u2019s Steakhouse has proudly served the people of Wayne County. Ron and Maureta Redmon opened Ludlow\u2019s in 2004 and operated the restaurant until 2013, when they sold the business to Craig and Brenda Onstot. Truett and Sheena Pershy took ownership in 2017 and have since expanded the menu, launched a catering business, and overseen a major renovation and relocation to better serve their customers and community. From custom-cut aged steaks and seafood to pasta, sandwiches, and more, Ludlow\u2019s offers something for everyone to enjoy.\n\nStay tuned as Chair Ernst continues to recognize outstanding Iowa small businesses with her Small Business of the Week award.\n\n###", 1, "2026-09-29T11:07:12Z", "2026-09-29T11:08:49Z"]], "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.ernst.senate.gov/news/press-releases/ernst-names-small-business-of-the-week-ludlows-steakhouse"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.9228461422026157, "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"}
