The page lists a press release: 'Figures Announces Bill to Broaden Health Care Coverage Due to Alabama’s Refusal to Expand Medicaid' and says he is a lead co-sponsor for the COVER Now Act to expand health care coverage to millions of Americans who remain uninsured due to state-level refusals to accept federal Medicaid expansion funds.

Figures publicly backed Medicaid-expansion legislation aimed at broadening health coverage in Alabama, which is relevant to maternal-health access but is not a completed reproductive-rights deliverable.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Figures took concrete same-term legislative steps relevant to the promise, including cosponsoring abortion-rights legislation, a Black maternal health resolution, and Medicaid-coverage expansion work tied to Alabama health access. However, the evidence shows advocacy and introduced/cosponsored measures rather than enacted federal policy or a completed outcome that materially addressed Alabama's maternal health crisis or protected reproductive rights. Under the rule for serious but unsuccessful legislative attempts, this is not delivered, with effort credit.
