Boyle's official website lists a May 11, 2026 press release titled 'Boyle Statement on Trump’s Support for Suspending Gas Tax' and identifies Boyle as the author of the Gas Price Relief Act. The page also still promotes the April 14, 2026 announcement of the Gas Price Relief Act and its stated goal of lowering gas prices.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Boyle continued publicly pushing his gas-tax proposal in the lookback window, but the official record on his site still shows advocacy and announcement rather than passage or implementation.

Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): never. same_term A for effort

Boyle took a concrete federal legislative step by introducing H.R. 8600, the Gas Price Relief Act, in the 119th Congress to suspend certain fuel excise taxes when gasoline prices exceed a threshold. The available official record shows the bill was referred to the House Ways and Means Committee and not enacted. Advocacy and bill introduction do not fulfill a promise to pass legislation, so this is not delivered, but the legislative attempt warrants the effort badge.

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): never. same_term A for effort

Boyle materially attempted to fulfill the promise by introducing H.R. 8600, the Gas Price Relief Act, in the 119th Congress and continuing to publicly advocate for it in 2026. However, the evidence shows the bill was only referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means and does not show enactment or implementation of legislation lowering gas prices. Because the promised outcome was passage of legislation, advocacy and bill introduction are not enough for delivery, but they do justify an effort badge.
