Fifteen\r\nyears ago, we lost twelve brave coal miners who went to work at the Sago mine\r\nand never returned home to their families. As a state, we came together after\r\nthe tragedy to grieve the loss of our fellow West Virginians and support the\r\nfamilies and loved ones of those lost. After the disaster, West Virginia worked\r\nhard to pass legislation that improved safety standards for our miners who\r\nmined the coal that made America the leader we are today. The Sago disaster\r\nanniversary reminds us that coal miners risk their lives every day to power our\r\nnation, and we must prioritize their health, safety, and security. I will\r\ncontinue to fight to make sure no family suffers this terrible loss ever again.\r\nGayle and I will keep the families and loved ones of those twelve brave West\r\nVirginians in our thoughts and prayers.\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\n\t  \n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t \n\t\t\n\t\t\tPrint\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tEmail\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\tTweet\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\n\t \n\t\n\t\n\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n    \n\t\n\t\n    \n    \n    \n    \t\n    \t\n\t    \t  \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tNext Article\n\t\t    \n\t\t    \n\t\t    \tPrevious Article", 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.manchin.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/manchin-statement-on-the-15th-anniversary-of-the-sago-mine-disaster"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5350007452070713, "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"}
