Congress.gov identifies Ruben Gallego as Senator from Arizona in the 119th Congress, 2025-present, and as House member from Arizona districts 7 and 3 from 2015-2025. The member activity page lists his sponsored and cosponsored legislation but the reviewed current records did not show an enacted federal jobs program tied to this promise.

Gallego remains in federal office, so the commitment is still capable of future action, but no official record reviewed showed completed delivery as of the refresh.
