Evidence

GovInfo lists H.R. 10238 as introduced September 2, 2026, referred to the House Committee on Small Business, with Beth Van Duyne as a cosponsor. The full title is to require the SBA Administrator to disseminate cybersecurity information and resources to small business concerns.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Recent official record shows Van Duyne took concrete legislative action by cosponsoring a bill matching the promise, but the bill was only introduced and referred to committee, so the requirement has not been enacted.

The introduced bill text says the SBA Administrator, in consultation with CISA, shall develop and disseminate information and resources to assist small business concerns in strengthening cybersecurity infrastructure and implementing cybersecurity best practices.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The bill text directly tracks the commitment’s substance, but it is introduced legislation, not enacted law; this supports an unresolved status with meaningful effort rather than delivery.

Van Duyne cosponsored H.R. 10238 in the 119th Congress, and the bill text directly matches the promise by requiring the SBA Administrator to disseminate cybersecurity information and resources to small businesses. However, the evidence shows only introduction and committee referral as of September 2, 2026, not enactment or implementation. Because the matching legislative effort is still pending rather than passed, the promise is not yet delivered but remains unresolved with meaningful effort.
