John D. Dingell, D-Dearborn, who will be retiring at the close of the 113th Congress after nearly 60 years of congressional service. Dingell, who was first elected in 1955, is the longest-serving member of the House and has the longest uninterrupted congressional tenure in U.S. history. Last year, Upton named the main Energy and Commerce Committee hearing room in 2123 Rayburn House Office Building in honor of Dingell, who served as its chairman from 1981 to 1994 and again from 2007 to 2008.\r\n    \r\n  \r\n  \r\n  \r\n    \r\n      f \r\n      t \r\n      #\r\n      e", 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://upton.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=398394"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.754691893234849, "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"}
