Evidence

Babin’s campaign priorities page says he would continue fighting for fairness for teachers by supporting legislation to fix the Windfall Elimination Provision and other measures to restore and help public education.

This is the underlying campaign promise. It explicitly commits him to backing WEP fixes and additional public-education measures.

Congress.gov identifies H.R. 3934 as a bill that would replace the WEP with a new formula, and the cosponsor list includes Rep. Brian Babin as an original cosponsor.

Babin took concrete legislative action by joining a bill aimed at fixing the WEP for teachers and other public servants.

Babin wrote that he was proud to cosponsor H.R. 3934, saying it would support teachers; the same newsletter says staff discussed how the WEP affects Texas educators.

His own official newsletter ties him to the WEP-reform bill and to advocacy on behalf of educators affected by the provision.

The House Ways and Means Committee says H.R. 3934 would replace the Windfall Elimination Provision with a fairer formula treating teachers, police officers, firefighters, and other public servants like other workers.

This official committee page confirms the bill’s purpose and shows the legislation Babin backed was a concrete WEP-reform measure.

SSA says the Social Security Fairness Act was signed into law on January 5, 2025, ended WEP and GPO, and increased benefits for teachers and other public workers with non-covered pensions. SSA also said it began adjusting benefits on February 25, 2025 and had completed sending over 3.1 million payments totaling $17 billion by July 7, 2025.

Official SSA guidance confirms the WEP fix that Babin backed was enacted and implemented, so the core teacher-fairness/WEP part of the promise has been delivered. The broader promise to support additional measures that restore and help public education is still not separately evidenced here, so the overall status remains partial.

Assessments

partial later_term A for effort

Babin did make a concrete legislative effort by cosponsoring H.R. 3934 and publicly backing WEP reform for teachers. The core WEP-fix portion of the promise was later enacted through the Social Security Fairness Act in 2025, but the broader promise also covered additional measures to restore and help public education, and the record here does not show delivery of that wider part. That supports partial credit rather than full delivery.

partial same_term A for effort

Babin made a concrete same-term legislative effort on the central part of the promise by serving as an original cosponsor of H.R. 3934, a bill to replace the Windfall Elimination Provision with a new formula affecting teachers and other public servants, and he publicly tied that support to educators. However, the evidence only shows support and advocacy for WEP reform, not full enactment or a broader record of delivering the promised 'other measures' to restore and help public education. That supports a partial fulfillment rather than full delivery.
