The verified original commitment identifies Mr. Min among the members for whom H.R. 10721, the Stop Orphaned Wells Act, was introduced, and verified evidence lists Dave Min as a cosponsor. Because this occurrence-specific promise is to support the legislation, not to secure enactment of the underlying policy outcome, cosponsorship constitutes delivered same-term support attributable to Min.
