GovInfo lists H.R. 9762, sponsored by Nellie Pou, with the full title matching ticket-sale transparency and ticket-availability withholding. The listed action is introduction and referral to House Energy and Commerce on July 16, 2026.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Pou introduced a bill directly addressing the commitment, but the official record shows only introduction and committee referral, not passage or enactment. No newer official action appeared in the September 1-3, 2026 lookback searches.

The bill text would require primary ticket sellers to disclose ticket inventory and total ticket cost before primary sale, and would prohibit withholding tickets to inflate prices or mislead buyers about availability.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The introduced text substantively matches the campaign commitment, including transparency in live-event ticket sales and a prohibition on withholding or concealing availability to push prices higher. Because it remains introduced text, it is evidence of serious effort, not completed delivery.

Pou introduced H.R. 9762, the HOLDBACKS Act, on July 16, 2026, and the bill directly matches the promise by requiring ticket-sale transparency and prohibiting withholding or concealing ticket availability to inflate prices. However, the official status shows only introduction and referral to the House Energy and Commerce Committee, with no passage, enactment, or implemented federal requirement as of September 3, 2026. Because Pou is still in federal office and the bill remains pending in the same term, the promise is not delivered yet but is not finally failed.
