This milestone comes after Senator Hawley\u2019s legislation, expanding the Radiation Exposure Compensation Act (RECA) to include Missourians, was signed into law by President Trump in 2025.\n\nRECA provides compensation to Americans who developed radiation-linked cancers due to the federal nuclear arms program during the Second World War- and Cold War-eras. Over $320 million has been delivered in total to survivors across the country under Senator Hawley\u2019s RECA law.\n\nThousands more survivors and their families may still be eligible to receive RECA compensation, which is administered by the Department of Justice. Senator Hawley\u2019s office is dedicated to helping all affected Missourians determine eligibility and file their claims before the deadline: December 31, 2027.", 1, "2026-05-19T06:31:01Z", "2026-05-19T06:32:40Z"]], "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.hawley.senate.gov/hawley-applauds-100-million-milestone-for-missouri-radiation-survivors/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6898158937692642, "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"}
