The verified commitment promised continued action to crack down on fraud and hold exploiters accountable. The only verified evidence says bills would further identify and crack down on fraud and hold criminals accountable, which supports documented effort aligned with the promise. However, the verified passage does not prove enactment, an achieved accountability outcome, or Walberg's material individual contribution sufficient for delivery or partial credit.
