Assessments

Public state: pending As of 2026-09-25 · verified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): unresolved. same_term A for effort

The verified commitment is to lead legislation aimed at ending data-center tax breaks, with the substantive outcome being the end of those subsidies. Verified bill text confirms H.R. 10448 exists as the Reverse Big Ugly Tax Breaks for Data Centers Act and would exclude covered data centers from specified tax benefits, but the verified evidence does not show enactment or that the tax breaks have actually ended as of 2026-09-25. Because there is documented candidate-linked effort through the verified original commitment and matching official bill text, but no verified delivered outcome, the promise remains unresolved rather than delivered or partial.
