Public state: delivered As of 2026-10-14 · verified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): delivered. same_term A for effort

The verified commitment was an action to urge/press the EEOC to withdraw the NPRM and engage Congress on a revised proposal, not a guaranteed promise that the EEOC would withdraw and replace the rule. Verified evidence shows Mfume was among lawmakers issuing that request. There is no verified evidence that the EEOC withdrew or replaced the rule, so credit is limited to the pressing/urging action itself.
