Representative Juan Ciscomani, Vice Chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security, is leading the effort in the House to ensure our law enforcement and national security Agencies and personnel, including TSA agents and airport security, are fully funded through the Department of Homeland Security.

Within the lookback window, Ciscomani took a concrete border/security-related legislative leadership action focused on DHS funding and homeland defenders, showing continued active effort on the issue.

"The President also talked about the many accomplishments and progress we have made in just one year coming off the last administration’s highest inflation and worst border crisis this century. Our border is secure..."

Ciscomani publicly asserted that the border was secure and framed this as a completed accomplishment under the current administration, but this is a statement rather than independent proof that his campaign promise was fully delivered.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Ciscomani explicitly campaigned to "fight to secure the border" and, while in office, sponsored and advanced concrete measures on that issue. He introduced H.R.35 (Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act) on 2025-01-03 and the House passed it on 2025-02-13, and he has led House efforts on DHS funding as Vice Chair of the Appropriations Subcommittee on Homeland Security (press releases 2025–2026). However, there is no evidence the broader promise—e.g., fully "securing the border" or enacting comprehensive border measures into law—was completed; key legislation did not become law (at least in the provided record), and public statements asserting the border is secure are not independent proof of full delivery. These concrete but incomplete actions constitute partial fulfillment during his term.

partial same_term A for effort

Ciscomani made border security a central 2022 federal House campaign promise and, once in Congress, materially pursued that issue by introducing H.R. 35, the Agent Raul Gonzalez Officer Safety Act. The bill passed the House in February 2025, showing a serious legislative effort within his congressional service tied to the campaign promise. However, the evidence does not show the broader promised outcome of securing the border was achieved, nor that his legislation became law. Because the promise was phrased as a broad fight rather than a specific completed policy, this supports partial fulfillment with an effort badge rather than full delivery.
