Evidence

legacy_unverified · Source version not recorded · locator unknown

GovInfo records H.R. 10229 as introduced by Mr. Figures and referred to Ways and Means and Agriculture. The bill would nullify Proclamation 11059 and bar reduced beef import tariffs or fees absent congressional enactment or an emergency declaration.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Figures took concrete legislative action matching the commitment by introducing H.R. 10229, but the official record shows only introduction and committee referral, not passage or enactment. The commitment remains unresolved, with serious effort shown.

Assessments

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

Figures introduced H.R. 10229, the Protecting American Beef Producers Act, during his current House term. The bill directly matches the promise by seeking to nullify Proclamation 11059 and bar tariff, duty, or fee reductions on beef imports. As of the available official status, it has only been introduced and referred to the Ways and Means and Agriculture committees, with no passage or enactment. Because the promised policy has not yet been delivered but the bill remains pending, the proper outcome is unresolved rather than delivered or never.
