It is carried by their spouse, their parents, their brothers and sisters, and especially the children who grow up without a mom or dad because they gave everything for our nation,\u201d said Senator Marshall. \u201cGold Star children live every day with the cost of freedom, and their families have paid a price few of us can truly understand. On Gold Star Children\u2019s Day, we honor these remarkable children, remember the heroes they lost, and reaffirm that as Americans, we owe them and their families a debt of gratitude that can never fully be repaid.\u201d\n\nThe Gold Star Children\u2019s Day resolution highlights the more than 625,000 Americans who have made the ultimate sacrifice in the 20th and 21st centuries, leaving nearly 15,000 children without a parent. Kansas is home to troops at Fort Leavenworth, Fort Riley, McConnell Air Force Base, and National Guard units across the state.\n\nSee the resolution here.\n\n###", 1, "2026-08-01T07:27:26Z", "2026-08-01T07:28:22Z"]], "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.marshall.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/senator-marshall-honors-gold-star-childrens-day/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.0382879991084337, "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"}
