Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): delivered. same_term

Moran fulfilled the stated commitment to support the AI Kill Switch Act by being listed as an original cosponsor and jointly introducing H.R. 9917 during his current House term. The promised action was support for the bill, not enactment of the underlying policy, so introduction/referral status does not prevent a delivered rating.
