My top priority was to ensure the much-needed disaster relief package was not delayed any further.\n\n\u201cWhile this package ultimately did not include a debt limit deal, I was supportive of the effort and would have voted for it.\n\n\u201cThis bill funds the government, provides urgently needed disaster aid, helps our farmers, and will give some hope and relief to those who have lost so much.\u201d\n\n####", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:07:19Z"]], "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.lgraham.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=445D5226-04C7-4C4B-BD70-E3A61230B88B"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6176959034055471, "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"}
