GovInfo lists H.R. 9653 as introduced by Brad Knott and referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary, with the bill version still Introduced in House.
Assessments
Knott introduced H.R. 9653 in the 119th Congress, and the bill text directly addresses the promise by allowing parties in agency adjudications to move enforcement actions into federal district court with access to jury trials. However, the cited status shows the bill remains introduced and referred to committee, not enacted. Under the federal campaign and office context, this is a serious legislative attempt but not delivery of the promised policy outcome.
