Assessments
The verified commitment is to direct the FCC to revise the prior express written consent definition, and verified evidence confirms the bill addresses that robocall/robotext consent policy. However, the only verified status evidence shows the listed last action date remained September 24, 2026, with no verified evidence of passage, enactment, or FCC revision as of October 5, 2026. Material candidate contribution is not established by verified passages, so delivery or partial credit is not supported.
