Assessments
The verified commitment and passages show Rep. Julie Johnson introduced H.R. 10365, a bill intended to amend the National and Community Service Act so DACA recipients are eligible for educational awards, and that it was referred to committee. The verified evidence does not show enactment or that DACA recipients actually became eligible. Because there is no documented expired deadline as of 2026-09-18, introduction is material effort but does not fulfill the promised policy outcome.
