Rep. Bynum's office said Bynum and Rep. Maxwell Frost introduced the Launching with Healthcare Act on September 3, 2026; the release says the bill would raise required dependent coverage from age 26 to 31 and lists Rep. George Latimer as a cosponsor.

The Office of the Law Revision Counsel page states the text contains laws in effect on September 1, 2026, and section 300gg-14 still requires dependent coverage until an adult child turns 26.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Current federal statutory text has not been amended to age 31, so the promised enactment has not yet been delivered as of this refresh.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): never. same_term A for effort

The promise was to enact legislation raising the federal dependent coverage requirement from age 26 to 31. The evidence shows Latimer cosponsored the Launching with Healthcare Act in the same federal term, which is a concrete legislative attempt matching the promised policy. However, the bill was only introduced, and current federal law still requires coverage only until age 26, so the promised enactment has not occurred. Because there was a serious legislative effort but no enacted outcome, this should be scored as never with an effort badge.
