Evidence
Nicole Malliotakis signed the U.S. Term Limits pledge committing that, when elected to the U.S. Congress, she will co-sponsor existing bipartisan legislation (HJR 20) that limits the terms that member of the House and Senate can serve.
The cosponsors list includes Rep. Malliotakis, Nicole [R-NY-11] with a cosponsorship date of 09/08/2025.
Congress.gov's H.J.Res.12 page lists Rep. Malliotakis, Nicole [R-NY-11] as a cosponsor with cosponsorship date 09/08/2025; the same page still shows the bill status as Introduced and the latest action as referral to the House Judiciary Committee on 01/06/2025.
Assessments
Malliotakis’s pledge was to co-sponsor a congressional term-limits constitutional amendment once elected to Congress. The official congressional record shows she became a cosponsor of H.J.Res.12, the 119th Congress version of the same term-limits proposal, on September 8, 2025. That satisfies the substance of the promise because she personally took the pledged legislative action, but it was not completed in her initial term and the bill number had changed from the earlier H.J.Res.20 referenced in the campaign pledge. On federal-office timing, this is best scored as delivery in a later term rather than same-term fulfillment.
Malliotakis made a clear campaign pledge to co-sponsor the congressional term-limits amendment. The cited Congress.gov record shows she later became a cosponsor of the current House joint resolution imposing the same term-limit structure, in the 119th Congress on September 8, 2025. Because this occurred after her initial term rather than in the first term after the pledge, it counts as delivered with later_term timing. The effort badge is warranted because the promise was specifically about co-sponsorship, not enactment.
