“The Enhancing Electric Grid Resilience Act will help address these challenges by making it easier to complete essential transmission projects, reduce costly grid congestion and deliver affordable, reliable electricity where it is needed. This commonsense legislation will help build a cheaper, cleaner, stronger and more resilient energy future for families and businesses across Tampa Bay.”

Castor reintroduced and promoted the Enhancing Electric Grid Resilience Act as a legislative commitment to strengthen the electric grid, complete transmission projects, reduce congestion, and deliver cheaper, more reliable clean electricity.

Castor materially fulfilled the promise as phrased to support and advance the Enhancing Electric Grid Resilience Act: she sponsored and introduced H.R. 9843 in the 119th Congress on July 22, 2026, and her office publicly reintroduced the bicameral bill with Sen. Peter Welch on July 24, 2026. The bill remained referred to House Energy and Commerce rather than enacted, so this does not prove the underlying grid-cost-allocation requirements became law; however, the canonical promise was framed around supporting and advancing the bill, not securing enactment.
