Mr. Whitesides introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary
Assessments
The verified commitment promised creation of a new federal grant program. Verified bill text shows H.R. 10181 would authorize the Attorney General to award grants to states for implementing the best practices, and the record shows Mr. Whitesides introduced the bill and it was referred to committee. That is material legislative effort by the candidate, but the verified evidence shows introduction/referral only, not enactment or an operational grant program. With no documented expired deadline, an unenacted attempt is unresolved rather than delivered or partial.
