The official votes-and-legislation page provides a running list of recent votes and sponsored/co-sponsored legislation, but the visible entry set does not surface a bill or vote tied to cracking down on big grocers fixing prices or companies abusing seed patents in the current lookback window.

Carson’s priorities page says he continues to fight food deserts and related food-access issues, but it does not document a specific enforcement action against grocery price fixing or seed-patent abuse during the lookback period.
Assessments
The available evidence shows no documented legislative, oversight, or public enforcement action by Rep. Carson specifically targeting grocery price-fixing or abuse of seed patents to raise food costs. His official pages reflect broader food-access priorities, but they do not substantiate concrete movement on this specific promise. Because the record provided is mainly negative/absence-of-evidence within a limited lookback window rather than proof the promise was definitively abandoned or failed after a serious attempt, the best judgment is unresolved rather than delivered, partial, or never.
