Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Stevens materially supported the promised policy by introducing H.R. 8709, the Homeownership Savings Act, in the 119th Congress to create tax-advantaged savings accounts for first-time homebuyers' down payments and closing costs. However, the evidence only shows introduction and committee referral, not enactment or implementation. Because the promised outcome has not been delivered but she made a serious legislative attempt during her current federal term, this is best scored as not delivered with an effort badge.
