The promise was to support the Public Transit Mental Health Awareness Act, not necessarily to secure enactment. The evidence shows Stansbury was an original cosponsor when the bill was introduced on September 1, 2026, and the bill text matches the promised policy of promoting 988 Lifeline information on public transportation. Original cosponsorship is direct federal legislative support during her current House term, so the support commitment is fulfilled even without evidence of passage.
