Diana DeGette (CO-01) and Louise Slaughter (NY-25), co-chairs of the House Pro-Choice Caucus, called on congressional leaders to disband the Select Panel ahead of a vote expected Thursday on a privileged resolution that would provide an additional $800,000 in taxpayer dollars for the panel, which has aggressively targeted women\u2019s health providers and the scientific community. House Republicans are now on course to spend more than $1.5 million funding this partisan attack on women\u2019s health. The congresswomen are again calling on GOP leaders to stop wasting tax dollars on it.\n\u201cThe Select Investigative Panel is nothing but a partisan witch hunt that has wasted taxpayer dollars while stirring up baseless, irresponsible allegations that have intimidated women, health care providers, and scientific researchers. The House majority is now on track to spend more than $1.5 million of Americans\u2019 tax dollars chasing down bogus allegations. Enough is enough. The American people shouldn\u2019t be forced to spend another dime on a panel designed to attack women\u2019s health and intimidate health care providers and researchers. These attacks are likely just a preview of what's to come under a Trump Administration with Republican majorities in Washington. It\u2019s time for Speaker Ryan and the majority in the House to end this political theater and disband the Select Investigative Panel once and for all,\u201d said DeGette and Slaughter.", 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": ["http://degette.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/pro-choice-caucus-chairs-the-american-people-shouldn-t-be-forced-to"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 1.6657670494168997, "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"}
