I look forward to working with my SALT Caucus colleagues on both sides of the aisle to deliver this much-needed middle-class tax relief.

Evidence
The official Gillen House homepage, last crawled on May 13, 2026, shows the latest news feed centered on a May 6 bipartisan air traffic control bill, a May 6 student art competition notice, and a May 4 school funding announcement. It does not show any SALT-specific action or tax-relief announcement in the lookback window.
Assessments
Gillen did take same-term federal action tied directly to the promise: she joined the bipartisan SALT Caucus, cosponsored H.R. 430 to repeal the SALT cap, joined a New York delegation letter seeking full repeal, and introduced/testified for an amendment to fully restore the SALT deduction. A tax package later enacted a temporary SALT cap increase, which is middle-class tax relief for some constituents, but it did not fully repeal the cap and appears to have been completed mainly through broader House Republican/SALT Caucus negotiations rather than Gillen's amendment or bill becoming law. Because there was real related work and a related partial policy outcome, but not full delivery clearly attributable to her, partial credit is appropriate.
