H.R.5464 — 119th Congress (2025-2026) Net Metering Protection Act Sponsor: Hernández, Pablo Jose [Resident Commissioner-D-PR-At Large] (Introduced 09/18/2025) ... Latest Action: House - 09/18/2025 Referred to the House Committee on Energy and Commerce. ... This bill has the status Introduced.

He did introduce a net-metering bill, but the official congressional record shows only introduction and referral, not enactment or committee advancement.

DOE says the PR-ERF is being reoriented toward grid and generation improvements; it also says DOE redirected $368.7 million to PREPA for near-term reliability projects, that more than 6,000 households already received systems, and that many but not all pending rooftop solar projects will move forward. DOE also states it notified Congress on January 6, 2026 about reallocating rooftop solar funds to practical generation and grid fixes.

Federal implementation is still incomplete and partly reversed away from rooftop solar investment, with only some solar installations preserved. That indicates the broader promise remains unresolved rather than delivered.

partial same_term A for effort

Hernandez has taken a direct same-term federal action aligned with the promise by sponsoring H.R.5464, the Net Metering Protection Act, in the 119th Congress. However, the bill was only introduced and referred to committee, with no enactment or substantive advancement shown. The broader renewable-energy investment component also remains incomplete, and DOE actions described in the evidence are mixed and not clearly attributable to him. This supports partial credit for advocacy and legislative effort, not full delivery.
