Evidence

Bice's official homepage still highlights that "last week" she and Rep. Josh Brecheen "introduced legislation requiring transparency when taxpayer dollars are used for personal legal settlements from Members of Congress."

Official House site confirms Bice publicly backed and introduced the transparency legislation, with no later update visible in the current lookback window.

The House cloud repost quotes Bice saying the bill ensures members who use taxpayer dollars to settle lawsuits "cannot hide their actions," and says she and Brecheen were introducing the measure.

Official repost of the April 16 coverage documents Bice's affirmative support for the legislation and the concrete step of introduction.

Bice promised to support legislation requiring transparency when taxpayer dollars are used to settle misconduct lawsuits by members of Congress. The evidence shows she affirmatively supported and introduced such legislation with Rep. Josh Brecheen while serving in the relevant federal office. Because the promise was framed as supporting legislation, not securing enactment, introduction and public sponsorship satisfy the commitment in the same term.
