The promise was to seek $5 billion in emergency tariff relief, not necessarily to enact it. During her same federal House term, Bynum publicly introduced Farm Bill amendments including a $5 billion emergency tariff-relief proposal for specialty crop growers, and the Rules Committee record lists the Horsford-Bynum tariff-refund amendment as submitted. The amendment was not adopted, but the promised action was to pursue the relief, which she did through a concrete legislative amendment.
