Meeks materially attempted the promised action by introducing H. Res. 1456 to require the Speaker to initiate or intervene in litigation enforcing the Iran War Powers Resolution. However, the located record shows only introduction and committee referral, with no evidence that the House adopted the resolution, that the Speaker was compelled to sue or intervene, or that litigation was initiated as a result. Because the promised outcome was not delivered despite a serious legislative attempt, this is not full or partial delivery of the outcome.
