SEC. 70203, 'NO TAX ON CAR LOAN INTEREST,' amends Internal Revenue Code section 163(h) to create a deduction for qualified passenger vehicle loan interest for taxable years 2025 through 2028, with the deduction applying only to vehicles with final assembly in the United States.

Congress enacted a federal auto-loan-interest deduction tied to U.S.-assembled vehicles, satisfying the substance of Moreno's promise.

The enrolled public law includes Sec. 70203, 'No tax on car loan interest,' amending IRC section 163(h) so personal interest does not include qualified passenger vehicle loan interest for tax years 2025 through 2028, with a $10,000 annual cap.

Congress enacted the core auto-loan-interest deduction during Moreno's Senate term, matching the substance of the promised policy.

The statute defines eligible vehicles and excludes any vehicle whose final assembly did not occur within the United States.

Congress.gov records H.R.1 as sponsored by Rep. Jodey Arrington, introduced May 20, 2025, passed the Senate on July 1, 2025, and became Public Law 119-21 on July 4, 2025.

The enacted vehicle was not introduced by Moreno; it became law through H.R.1, a House-sponsored reconciliation bill. This supports partial rather than full candidate-specific fulfillment of a promise to introduce legislation.

The Senate roll call for H.R.1 passage shows the bill passed 50-50 with the Vice President voting yea, and lists Moreno (R-OH) as voting Yea.

Moreno supported the final bill containing the deduction, showing concrete support for enactment, but the vote alone does not prove he introduced the promised legislation.

Moreno's official legislation page lists his sponsored legislation and several H.R.1 amendments, but the visible sponsored-bill listings do not show a standalone auto-loan-interest or U.S.-made-car deduction bill.

The member record does not establish that Moreno introduced the specific promised legislation; that gap supports only partial credit despite enactment of the policy substance.
