The House Clerk lists John James as Michigan's 10th District Republican Representative with an oath of office date of Jan. 03, 2025.

As of the assessment date, James is serving in Congress rather than in a gubernatorial administration, so there is no official administration record to show the promised ethics-clause policy was implemented.

Assessments

unresolved unknown

The promise was conditional on John James becoming governor and applying ethics clauses across employment agreements in his gubernatorial administration. The evidence only establishes that the promise was made and that James later served in Congress, not as governor. Because there was no James gubernatorial administration in which the policy could be implemented, the delivery status cannot be judged as fulfilled or failed on the provided record.
