Evidence

The official homepage’s latest news feed for June 8, 2026 and June 2, 2026 highlights a war-powers item and amendments on SNAP and energy costs; no overtime-specific announcement appears in the visible feed, and the page contains no match for "overtime".

No concrete sign in the last lookback window that Carson delivered the overtime commitment; the most recent official updates are on unrelated issues.

The Clerk’s member profile shows Carson as Indiana’s 7th District Democrat with an oath date of January 3, 2025 and current committee assignments in Transportation and Infrastructure, Intelligence, and the China select committee; the profile does not surface any overtime-related legislative item.

Current official congressional status confirms active service in the same term, but not delivery of the overtime promise.

Assessments

unresolved unknown

As of June 11, 2026, the record provided does not show that Carson secured enactment of a federal policy requiring large companies to pay double wages for overtime, and the cited official sources do not identify an overtime-specific bill, vote, or completed action tied to him. At the same time, the evidence is too thin to prove a definitive failed end-state or a serious but unsuccessful legislative push, so this is better scored as unresolved rather than never.
