The House Clerk records Roll Call 665 on the conference report for S. 1177, described as a vote 'To reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965,' and lists Rep. Thompson (MS) as voting Yea.

Thompson took a direct floor vote in favor of the bill that became the ESEA reauthorization, which is concrete evidence of work toward the promise.

Congress.gov shows S.1177 became Public Law No. 114-95 on December 10, 2015, and identifies it as the Every Student Succeeds Act, the ESEA reauthorization enacted in the 114th Congress.

This confirms the reauthorization effort succeeded legislatively in the same Congress in which Thompson voted for final passage.

The promised federal outcome was to work toward reauthorizing ESEA. Congress enacted the Every Student Succeeds Act, Public Law 114-95, on December 10, 2015, expressly reauthorizing the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Thompson was serving in the House at the time and voted Yea on the final House conference report vote for S.1177 on December 2, 2015. Because the reauthorization passed while he remained in office and he took a direct affirmative legislative action, the promise is fulfilled in the same term context.

The promise was to work toward reauthorizing ESEA, not necessarily to single-handedly enact it. Congress enacted the Every Student Succeeds Act, an ESEA reauthorization, as Public Law 114-95 on December 10, 2015. Rep. Thompson directly supported final House passage by voting Yea on the conference report described as reauthorizing the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. That satisfies the promised outcome within the same congressional term.
