Markey (D-Mass.) today released the following statement on the detention of Massachusetts resident and former Marine Robert Gilman by the Russian government.\n\n\u201cMy office has been closely monitoring the detention of Robert Gilman\u2013a Massachusetts resident and former Marine who has been held in Russia on questionable charges for 1,662 days\u2013nearly four and a half years.\n\n\u201cWe have been made aware by Robert\u2019s family and advocates working on his behalf that approximately 48 days ago, he was diagnosed with a dissociative stupor\u2013a condition where he is non-responsive and unable to interact or eat. He is essentially catatonic and has also suffered a severe case of pneumonia.\n\n\u201cI am very worried that, if urgent action is not taken to release Robert so he can receive urgent medical care in the United States, his condition could become permanent, or he could die in Russian custody. I implore the United States and Russian governments to find a solution before we find ourselves in a situation that will further complicate an already difficult relationship.\u201d\n\n\u201cI am praying for Robert and his family today.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-07T06:11:19Z", "2026-08-07T06:12:42Z"]], "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.markey.senate.gov/news/press-releases/senator-markey-statement-on-the-worsening-medical-condition-of-robert-gilman"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 3.248422872275114, "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"}
