GovInfo lists H.R. 9743 as introduced by Rep. Diana Harshbarger on July 16, 2026, and referred to the Committees on Energy and Commerce, Education and Workforce, and Ways and Means. The full title matches the promised coverage requirement for plans covering sex-rejecting procedures to also cover restorative care.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The official federal bill record shows Harshbarger introduced the TRUTH in Coverage Act, but the latest listed action is committee referral, not House passage, Senate passage, or enactment. Searches focused on the Aug. 19-21 lookback did not reveal a newer official passage action.

Harshbarger said she would continue until Congress passes her STOP Act and TRUTH in Coverage Act. The statement describes the July TRUTH in Coverage Act as requiring health insurance plans covering sex-rejecting procedures to also cover restorative care under the same terms, deductibles, and cost-sharing rules.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Her official Aug. 14 statement confirms continued advocacy and frames passage as still pending. It supports serious effort, but not delivery of the promise to pass the act.

Harshbarger materially attempted the promised federal outcome by introducing H.R. 9743, the TRUTH in Coverage Act of 2026, on July 16, 2026. However, the bill's official status remains introduction and committee referral, with no evidence that it passed the House, Senate, or became law as of August 21, 2026. Because the promised outcome was to pass the act, this is not delivered, but the legislative effort warrants an effort badge.
