Introduced 01/14/2025; the bill would amend the Food Security Act of 1985 to authorize payments under EQIP to assist producers in implementing conservation practices along the southern border of Texas.

De La Cruz introduced a concrete bill in the 119th Congress to fund repairs and conservation work for border-area producers affected by damage, showing active legislative effort on the promise.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

De La Cruz made a concrete federal legislative effort toward the promise by introducing the Southern Border Farmers and Ranchers Protection Act in both the 118th Congress and 119th Congress, and related text appears to have been incorporated into a 2026 House Agriculture Committee farm bill print. However, the standalone 119th Congress bill H.R. 389 remains only introduced/referred to subcommittee, and the evidence does not show enactment of a federal reimbursement/payment program or actual reimbursements to ranchers and farmers for confirmed damages from illegal immigrant traffic. Because the promised outcome has not been delivered despite serious legislative attempts during her House service, this is best scored as not fulfilled with an effort badge.

never same_term A for effort

The promise was to ensure reimbursement for ranchers and farmers for confirmed damages from illegal immigrant traffic. De La Cruz made serious legislative attempts by introducing the Southern Border Farmers and Ranchers Protection Act in both the 118th and 119th Congresses, but the evidence shows the bills stalled after committee or subcommittee referral and did not become law. Because no reimbursement program or delivered outcome is shown, this should be rated as not fulfilled, with effort credited.
