For all of these reasons, I believe Judge Barrett is exceptionally well-qualified to be an Associate Justice on the United States Supreme Court.\u201d\n\nSenator Sullivan delivered remarks on the floor of the U.S. Senate on October 21 announcing his support for Judge Barrett\u2019s nomination.\n\n# # #", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-06-28T00:34:36Z"]], "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.sullivan.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/sullivan-votes-to-confirm-barrett-to-supreme-court"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.2023018207401037, "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"}
