I’m also pushing a landmark nationwide crime package to protect children from online exploitation, crack down on organized retail crime, combat the spread of illicit xylazine and stem the flow of contraband in federal prisons. This bipartisan legislation has garnered widespread support from major child safety, law enforcement and technology groups, as well as the Trump administration. It’s imperative that this package is signed into law as part of the National Defense Authorization Act.

Grassley said he is pushing a nationwide crime package covering online child exploitation, retail crime, xylazine, and prison contraband, and wants it signed into law through the NDAA.

The Senate roll call on cloture on the motion to proceed to S. 4784, the FY2027 NDAA, required three-fifths support and was rejected 50-46. Grassley (R-IA) voted Yea. Lookback-window searches did not find a later official enactment or successful renewed floor vote by September 10, 2026.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Grassley supported a procedural vote to advance the FY2027 NDAA vehicle, but the vote failed, leaving the package not fully delivered and still unresolved as of the refresh date.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): partial. same_term A for effort

Grassley materially advanced the promised bipartisan crime and child-safety measures in the same federal term by working with Durbin to package them for the FY2027 NDAA and by voting to advance the NDAA vehicle. However, the available record shows the key procedural vote failed on July 14, 2026, and there is no evidence by September 10, 2026 that the measures were enacted or successfully included in a passed NDAA. Because the promised subjects were pursued but not yet fully delivered through the NDAA, this merits partial credit with an effort badge rather than full delivery.
