None of them knew how the fight against Britain would end, but they believed the future was worth betting on. The greatest measure of what they built is evident in all of us: A free people, still governing ourselves, 250 years later.\n\n\u201cThis moment?isn\u2019t?about one party, one part of America\u2019s history or even one person,?it\u2019s?about what unites us. It\u2019s about living up to our founding principles, and the purely American spirit of striving to make our union more perfect.\n\n\u201cSo today let\u2019s show our national pride by setting aside what divides us and celebrating the shared history and values that bring us together. Happy Fourth of July and here\u2019s to another 250 years of this great nation.\u201d\n\n###", 1, "2026-07-07T08:20:12Z", "2026-07-07T08:22:09Z"]], "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.shaheen.senate.gov/news/press/shaheen-statement-on-the-historic-250th-anniversary-of-america"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.5756860375404358, "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"}
