Evidence
Congressman Danny K. Davis issued a statement saying the Supreme Court decision was a "serious blow" to equal protection and that Congress must act to restore and strengthen voting rights protections.
The biography says Davis serves on the Ways and Means Committee and is a member of several Congressional Caucuses, including the Congressional Equity Caucus.
Assessments
Davis is an active federal House member and has taken direct same-term legislative action aligned with the promise: he was an original cosponsor of the 119th Congress Equality Act, a bill to prohibit discrimination based on sex, gender identity, and sexual orientation, and he also cosponsored the prior 118th Congress version. Because the promise is framed as supporting and advocating for LGBTQ+ equality rather than guaranteeing enactment of a specific law, this advocacy and legislative sponsorship activity is sufficient to count as delivered in the federal office context, even though the Equality Act has not become law.
