The promise was to support the bipartisan Trade Review Act, not necessarily to secure enactment. During Welch's active Senate term, he cosponsored S.1272 and his office announced that he helped introduce the Trade Review Act of 2025 with bipartisan sponsors. Although the bill had only been introduced and referred to committee, those actions satisfy the promised support in the relevant federal office context.
