We\u2019ll keep standing up to President Trump\u2019s attacks on democracy and protecting every American\u2019s fundamental right to choose their representatives.\u201d\n\nSenator Hickenlooper recently filed an amicus brief in the case alongside a bipartisan group of 260 other lawmakers arguing against Trump\u2019s executive order and the USPS rule. He also previously demanded that the USPS abandon the rule and has been staunch opposition to the Trump administration\u2019s efforts to restrict voting rights. Hickenlooper introduced the Mail and Absentee Voter Protection Act to nullify Trump\u2019s executive order.\n\nHickenlooper has consistently fought efforts by MAGA and Trump to restrict voting, including the SAVE Act, which he took to the senate floor to oppose. He also cosponsors several pieces of voting rights legislation, including the For the People Act, the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act, and the Freedom to Vote Act.\n\n###", 1, "2026-09-16T09:43:13Z", "2026-09-16T09:44:22Z"]], "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.hickenlooper.senate.gov/press_releases/hickenlooper-statement-on-scotus-mail-in-voting-ruling/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7010106928646564, "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"}
