Evidence

L30-L33: "Improving Healthcare and Reducing Costs" ... "Derrick will work to make sure individuals with preexisting conditions are protected when Obamacare is fully repealed and a new system is implemented allowing for true competition in healthcare, driving costs down."

This is the campaign promise itself: protection for people with preexisting conditions was conditioned on a future full repeal of Obamacare and replacement with a new competitive system.

L73-L86: The ACA compilation is "Amended Through Public Law 119-75, Enacted February 3, 2026" and lists the title and public law citation as "Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act" / "Public Law 111-148."

As of February 3, 2026, the Affordable Care Act remained in force and was still being amended through later public laws, so the campaign condition of a full repeal had not occurred.

The promise was conditional on full repeal of Obamacare and implementation of a replacement competitive healthcare system that protects people with preexisting conditions. The evidence indicates the Affordable Care Act remained in force and was still being amended as of February 3, 2026. There is no evidence that Van Orden delivered the promised repeal-and-replace outcome or that the preexisting-condition protection was enacted as part of such a replacement system. The record provided also does not show a serious legislative or executive attempt by Van Orden that failed, so no effort badge is warranted.

The promise was conditional on full repeal of Obamacare and implementation of a replacement system with competition while protecting people with preexisting conditions. The evidence shows the Affordable Care Act remained in force and was still being amended as of February 3, 2026, so the promised policy outcome did not occur during the relevant term. The provided evidence does not establish a serious legislative or executive attempt by Van Orden that failed, so the effort badge is not warranted.
