As the nation\u2019s only producer of the Abrams tank, the Lima plant plays an important role in contributing to our national security. We must ensure this critical defense capability is available for the Army when they say they need it in a few years. A combination of production for both domestic and foreign use continues to be the right path forward.\u201d\r\n\u00a0\r\n###", 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.portman.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/press-releases?ID=af7b51d8-220d-485d-99e8-6f6d217675d3"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 2.05432903021574, "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"}
