Assessments

Public state: pending As of 2026-10-07 · verified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): unresolved. unknown A for effort

The verified commitment was to provide whistleblower protections, which requires enactment or an achieved protection outcome. Verified evidence shows Scanlon proposed the provision and introduced H.R. 10506, which was referred to the Committee on Agriculture, but there is no verified evidence that the protections were enacted or otherwise took effect. With no documented deadline expired as of 2026-10-07, the attempt counts for effort but not delivery or partial delivery.
