Assessments
The verified commitment promised an outcome: helping uninsured people with diabetes access insulin. Verified evidence shows DeGette introduced/sponsored the INSULIN Act and that the introduced bill contains a section for an insulin resource center and hotline for uninsured individuals. However, the verified bill status only shows action on September 2, 2026, with no verified enactment or implemented access improvement as of September 14, 2026. Because this is an attempt without enactment and no deadline has expired, the outcome is unresolved rather than delivered or partial.
