Assessments
The promise was to support legislation moving the country toward universal healthcare coverage, not necessarily to enact universal coverage. In her first House term, Becca Balint was an original cosponsor of H.R.3421, the Medicare for All Act, which would establish national health insurance coverage for U.S. residents. She later cosponsored similar Medicare for All legislation in the 119th Congress as well. Because she took the promised legislative support action while in federal office, this counts as delivered in the same term even though the bill did not become law.
