Assessments
The promise was specifically to introduce the Ending Common Core and Expanding School Choice Act, not to enact it. After Biggs won the 2020 general election, Congress.gov records him as sponsor of H.R.6603, the Ending Common Core and Expanding School Choice Act, introduced on February 4, 2022 during the 117th Congress, which is the House term following that election. Later reintroductions in 2025 reinforce the same activity but are not needed because the promised introduction occurred in the same term.
Official records show Rep. Andy Biggs introduced legislation titled the Ending Common Core and Expanding School Choice Act: H.R.1462 (press release dated May 22, 2017) and later reintroduced H.R.83 on Jan 3, 2025 (Congress.gov, GovInfo). Because he formally sponsored/introduced the named bill while serving in Congress, the promise to introduce the Act was fulfilled.
