Enact nationwide paid family and sick leave.

Evidence
The current official press releases page lists recent items dated June 4, 2026 and May 27, 2026, both on unrelated topics ('Physician-Lawmaker Maxine Dexter Introduces Bipartisan Legislation to Help Military Medics Transition into Civilian Health Workforce' and 'After Hearing from Constituent, Dexter Introduces Bill to Protect Retiree Pensions During Shutdowns'). Site searches on this page returned no matches for 'leave', 'family', 'sick', 'labor', or 'worker'.
Dexter's official About page says she is focused on improving the air we breathe, the climate, housing, our healthcare system, and community safety; site searches on the page found no matches for 'leave' or 'worker'.
Assessments
As of June 12, 2026, the promised nationwide outcome has not been enacted at the federal level: the U.S. Department of Labor still describes FMLA as providing unpaid leave and says there are no federal legal requirements for paid sick leave. The available official Dexter evidence in office, including her House priorities and recent press activity, does not show that she delivered or materially advanced a successful federal paid family and sick leave law. Because she is still an active first-term federal officeholder and the record here does not show a clear failed major attempt by her, this is better scored as unresolved rather than never.
