Wagner's office said she introduced the ENFORCE Act with Reps. Jeff Van Drew and Steve Cohen to combat AI-generated or AI-modified child sexual abuse material; Wagner said the bill would ensure AI-generated CSAM is prosecuted and penalized with the same weight as other federal sex crimes.
Assessments
Section 230 remained in force as of September 1, 2026, so the promised repeal was not delivered. The evidence also does not show Wagner sponsoring or materially advancing a successful Section 230 repeal. However, she did take related federal action against technology-enabled online harms through the ENFORCE Act, which supports partial credit for the broader promise to fight Big Tech or online-platform harms, but not full delivery of repeal.
The promise is to continue fighting Big Tech and work to repeal Section 230. The evidence does not show that Section 230 was repealed or that Wagner delivered that outcome. However, it does show some relevant effort on the broader online-platform accountability issue, including her 2025 ENFORCE Act activity addressing online harms. Recent 2026 official activity provided here does not show a concrete Wagner-led Section 230 repeal action, and the cited January 2026 repeal advocacy was by another member, not Wagner. Because there is evidence of related anti-Big-Tech effort but not of actual repeal or a clearly documented Wagner-led repeal push in the supplied record, partial credit is most appropriate rather than delivered or never.
