Evidence

The member page lists H.R. 21, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, as a 119th Congress bill with 163 cosponsors and a Passed House status; latest action shown was Senate referral on 2025-01-24.

Official congressional record confirms Scalise remained associated with a major pro-life bill in the same Congress, but the listed action is from January 2025, outside the 30-day lookback.

GovInfo’s Congressional Record Index entry for ABORTION lists multiple abortion-related bills in the 119th Congress, including H.R. 12, H.R. 7237, and H.R. 8366.

An official index shows abortion legislation remained active in the House during the lookback window, but this source does not show a new Scalise-specific pro-life action.

In his most recent official House press release within the lookback window, Scalise highlighted House Republicans’ efforts on veterans, housing costs, women’s contributions, and law enforcement; the release does not mention abortion or other pro-life actions.

Recent official activity is documented, but it is not concrete pro-life delivery, so it does not move the claim toward fully delivered in the lookback period.

Assessments

delivered same_term

Scalise’s promise was broad and values-based rather than a specific enactment pledge. The evidence shows he was associated in the 119th Congress with H.R. 21, the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, a major pro-life measure that passed the House and was referred to the Senate on January 24, 2025. In federal House context, materially backing and helping advance a pro-life bill through the chamber is enough to count as standing up for pro-life values, even though the bill had not become law. The more recent press release and GovInfo index do not add a new delivery event, but they also do not negate the House-passed pro-life action.
