Assessments

Public state: delivered As of 2026-10-12 · verified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): delivered. same_term A for effort

The commitment is framed as supporting the RAISE Act of 2026, not guaranteeing enactment. Verified passages show Wasserman Schultz was one of the members who introduced the RAISE Act in the 119th Congress, and the bill's title states it would amend the Agricultural Act of 2014 to authorize emergency assistance for high value crop losses. Introducing the bill is material candidate action satisfying the promised support during the same term, though the record does not prove enactment of the underlying authorization.
