Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): unresolved. same_term A for effort

King-Hinds was an original cosponsor of H.R. 10238, introduced September 2, 2026, which directly matches the promise by requiring SBA, in consultation with CISA, to disseminate cybersecurity information and resources to small businesses. As of the available record, the bill has only been introduced and referred to the House Small Business Committee, with no enactment or implemented SBA requirement. Because the matching effort is pending rather than failed, the outcome is unresolved, with credit for same-term effort.
