The verified commitment is occurrence-specific: Lee's office stated that she cosponsors the American Family Act, not that the Child Tax Credit had already been enacted or fully expanded. Verified evidence confirms she cosponsors that act, and the verified bill text shows the act is directed at establishing a refundable child tax credit with monthly advance payment, matching the promised action and policy substance. This supports delivery of the cosponsorship commitment, while effort_badge is also true because the broader enactment outcome is not proven by verified evidence.
