GovInfo lists H.R. 10297 as introduced on September 3, 2026, with Marc A. Veasey as a cosponsor. The bill title is "To require the Secretary of Homeland Security to designate El Salvador for temporary protected status," and the action says it was referred to the House Judiciary Committee.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Veasey took concrete legislative action by cosponsoring a bill matching the commitment, but the official record shows only introduction and committee referral, not enactment or implementation.

USCIS stated that El Salvador TPS and related benefits are set to terminate on September 9, 2026, and that covered EAD notices extend work authorization only until that same date.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The latest agency guidance found near the lookback window confirms the existing TPS designation still has a September 9, 2026 endpoint, so there is no official delivery yet of the requested new required designation beyond that date.

Veasey is an original cosponsor of H.R. 10297, the El Salvador TPS Act of 2026, which directly matches the promised outcome by requiring the DHS Secretary to designate El Salvador for TPS. However, as of September 7, 2026, the bill had only been introduced and referred to the House Judiciary Committee, with no enactment or DHS implementation shown. USCIS guidance still reflected El Salvador TPS terminating on September 9, 2026, so the promised result has not yet been delivered, but the legislative effort remains pending in the same federal term.
