Evidence

Under 'Defending Choice,' the campaign site says Elfreth is 'fighting to codify the protections once afforded by Roe v. Wade' and that in the Maryland Senate she co-sponsored a constitutional amendment to enshrine reproductive freedom.

Official campaign material states the Roe-codification promise directly and ties it to her earlier reproductive-freedom record.

The Congressional Record Index lists Elfreth as a bill cosponsor for H.R. 4611, described as 'Abortion: ensure affordable abortion coverage for every woman.'

She took concrete legislative action in Congress by cosponsoring a major abortion-access bill, which is follow-through on the reproductive-freedom promise.

The same Congressional Record Index lists Elfreth as a bill cosponsor for H.R. 12, the Women's Health Protection Act of 2025, which aims 'to protect a person's ability to determine whether to continue or end a pregnancy.'

Cosponsoring the House version of the Women's Health Protection Act is direct evidence of work to codify abortion protections.

The Congressional Record Index also lists Elfreth as a cosponsor of H.R. 2029, described as revising rules that ban mailing or receiving items related to medication abortions.

This is another concrete congressional action consistent with preserving reproductive freedom and abortion access.

The House Clerk records Roll Call 27 on H.R. 21 as 'On Passage' of the Born-Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act, and the status is 'Passed.'

Elfreth had an opportunity to oppose an anti-abortion measure; the official record shows the bill passed the House, which underscores that her support for reproductive freedom has not yet become federal codification.

Congress.gov shows H.R. 12 was introduced and referred to committee; the bill text states it would protect a person's ability to decide whether to continue or end a pregnancy and protect providers' ability to provide abortion services.

The bill she cosponsored was introduced but not enacted, so the codification promise remains unfulfilled at the federal level.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Elfreth took concrete same-term legislative action consistent with the promise by cosponsoring H.R. 12, the Women's Health Protection Act of 2025, along with other abortion-access measures. However, the core promised outcome was codifying Roe-style protections at the federal level, and the cited evidence shows H.R. 12 was only introduced and referred to committee, not enacted. Because there was a serious legislative attempt but the promised policy outcome was not delivered, the appropriate outcome is never with an effort badge.
