Congress.gov lists H.R. 1589 as introduced on February 26, 2025, with Maria Elvira Salazar as an original cosponsor dated February 26, 2025. The bill title is the American Dream and Promise Act of 2025, and its official title authorizes cancellation of removal and adjustment of status of certain aliens; Congress.gov shows the bill status as Introduced.
Assessments
The promise was to support legislation, not necessarily to secure enactment. In the 119th Congress, Salazar was an original cosponsor of H.R. 1589, the American Dream and Promise Act of 2025, which matches the promised TPS pathway and applicant removal protections. She also signed the discharge petition to advance the bill toward House consideration. The bill had not passed, but her promised action of supporting and materially advancing the legislation was fulfilled during her current federal term.
