H.R. 9332 would require the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) to establish regional boards
Assessments
The verified commitment was to require FERC to establish regional joint boards for electric load forecasting. Verified evidence shows John Joyce was a cosponsor of H.R. 9332, the engrossed bill text matches the promised requirement, and the bill passed the House on September 15, 2026. However, the verified evidence does not show enactment into law or FERC implementation as of September 18, 2026, so the outcome has not been delivered. Joyce receives effort credit for cosponsoring and materially advancing the matching bill, but House passage alone does not fulfill a promise to impose the requirement.
