The homepage's current news feed is about a June 9 release on ICE/CBP funding, a May 20 op-ed on aviation, and a May 15 Fox News item. The member bio says his focus is crime, economic growth, and border security, not education or school choice.

The votes-and-legislation page still shows recent House votes only through March 24, 2026, and none are school-choice related. There is no roll-call evidence in the lookback window showing a concrete school-choice vote or legislative action by Knott.

GovInfo’s public-law text identifies Public Law 119-21 as H.R. 1, approved July 4, 2025. Section 70411 creates IRC section 25F for qualified elementary and secondary education scholarships, allowing credits for contributions to scholarship granting organizations that fund eligible students’ elementary or secondary education expenses.
Assessments
Knott promised to support school choice. During his current House term, he voted Aye on final House passage of H.R. 1, which became Public Law 119-21 and included a federal elementary and secondary education scholarship tax-credit provision. That is a concrete official vote for an enacted school-choice mechanism aligned with the promise, so the promise counts as delivered in the same term.
The promise is a general policy commitment to back school choice, but the provided federal-office evidence does not show Brad Knott casting a school-choice vote, sponsoring relevant legislation, issuing a school-choice press release, or otherwise taking a concrete official action that would demonstrate delivery. Because he remains in office and the evidence is mainly absence-of-action within recent lookback windows rather than proof the promise definitively failed, this is better scored as unresolved than never. There is also not enough evidence of a serious but failed legislative or executive push to award an effort badge.
The available evidence only shows that Knott's official homepage and votes/legislation page did not surface school-choice activity in the narrow May 11-13, 2026 lookback window. It does not establish that the promised school-choice outcome was delivered, nor does it show a serious failed legislative or executive attempt. Because the record provided is too limited to judge fulfillment of a federal campaign promise, the status remains unresolved.
