The promise was framed as seeking repeal or overhaul of New York's CLCPA, not necessarily securing enactment of a repeal or overhaul. The evidence shows Lawler publicly continued advocating against the CLCPA and joined a formal April 2, 2026 letter urging Governor Hochul to repeal it. That is a concrete action matching the promised conduct, even though the CLCPA itself was not shown to have been repealed or overhauled.
