The two staff members have been integral to the senator\u2019s office since the beginning of his Senate tenure, working to respond to thousands of constituent requests, coordinate community outreach, and ensure that South Carolinians have a voice in Washington.\n\n\u201cDanielle and Deb represent the very best of public service,\u201d said Sen. Scott. \u201cFor more than 20 years, they have worked diligently to serve the people of South Carolina with dedication, professionalism, and compassion. I am honored to work alongside them and grateful for their unwavering service.\u201d\n\nDespite being legally blind, Deb Blickenstaff has built a reputation as one of the most effective and dedicated constituent services professionals in the Senate, handling complex casework and advocating for South Carolinians with unwavering commitment. This recognition of 28 years of service takes place during National Disability Employment Awareness Month, a time to recognize the invaluable contributions that employees with disabilities can bring to any workplace.\n\nDanielle Gibbs has been a key liaison between the senator\u2019s office and communities across the Upstate, helping to address local concerns and connect residents with federal resources.\n\nThe event took place at Lockheed Martin\u2019s Greenville facility, an example of Sen. Scott\u2019s successful Opportunity Zones initiative in an industrial area.\n\n###", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T19:32:54Z"]], "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.scott.senate.gov/media-center/press-releases/senator-scott-recognizes-20-years-of-service-by-staff-members/"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.7764920592308044, "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"}
