Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Higgins made a concrete same-term congressional effort consistent with the pledge by sponsoring H.R. 4564, the Post-Caliphate Threat Assessment Act, aimed at assessing and combating ISIS-linked foreign terrorist fighter activity, and the bill passed the House. However, the promise was extremely broad, pledging support for all measures that would destroy ISIS, and the evidence shows targeted legislative activity rather than full delivery of the promised outcome or enactment of a comprehensive anti-ISIS program attributable to him. This warrants partial credit with an effort badge.

partial same_term A for effort

Higgins made concrete same-term legislative efforts aligned with the promise, including sponsoring H.R. 4564, the Post-Caliphate Threat Assessment Act of 2017, which targeted ISIS-linked foreign terrorist fighter activity and passed the House. However, the promise was extremely broad, pledging support for all measures that destroy ISIS, and the evidence does not establish that the promised outcome was fully delivered or that ISIS was destroyed as a result. This supports partial fulfillment with a clear effort badge.
