Assessments
The verified commitment was an exact promise to introduce the Recovery First Housing Act. Verified bill records show H.R. 10487 was sponsored by Rep. Tim Burchett and introduced on September 17, 2026, with bill text requiring project sponsors to offer substance use disorder treatment in covered housing programs. Introduction, not enactment, is the promised action, so this is delivered in the same term with material candidate attribution.
