Public state: delivered As of 2026-10-05 · verified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): delivered. same_term A for effort

The occurrence-specific commitment is to support legislation directing the Secretary of Education to establish the Public Service Educational Assistance Program, not to secure enactment of the program. Verified evidence shows H.R. 10551 was introduced by Mr. Figures for himself, Mrs. Hayes, and Mr. Ezell, demonstrating Ezell materially supported/advanced the legislation, and the verified bill text matches the promised program substance. There is no verified evidence of enactment, but enactment is not required to satisfy this support-legislation commitment.
