Occurrences

The Cost-of-Living Emergency Act puts the focus on American families, not Wall Street, and makes it easier to hold accountable any corporation that price-gouges, to prevent sudden spikes in household bills, and to provide immediate relief when essential costs rise.

Deluzio co-introduces a bill aimed at reducing living costs, enforcing price-gouging laws, and preventing sudden household bill spikes.

Evidence

Deluzio’s office says he and Sen. Mark Kelly introduced the Cost-of-Living Emergency Act, describing it as legislation to address the cost of living emergency, make it easier to hold corporations accountable for price gouging, prevent sudden spikes in household bills, and provide relief when essential costs rise.

Official campaign-style press release documents Deluzio publicly introducing and backing legislation matching the promise’s core elements: lowering essential costs and cracking down on price gouging.

GovInfo records that Mr. Deluzio introduced H.R. 8135 on March 27, 2026, and that it was referred to Financial Services plus Education and Workforce, Energy and Commerce, Judiciary, Budget, and Rules. The bill title and full title state it addresses the cost of living and directs actions to address the emergency.

The official bill record confirms the legislative action and that the measure was formally introduced in the House during the current term.

The bill text declares an emergency with respect to the high cost of living and includes sections for actions on household costs, including coordination on the costs of food, housing, utilities, health care, and transportation, plus enforcement-related provisions.

The introduced bill text shows the promised policy package was not just announced but actually drafted and introduced as legislation.

Assessments

delivered same_term A for effort

The promise was to support legislation addressing cost-of-living pressures by lowering essential costs and cracking down on price gouging or abusive pricing. Deluzio materially fulfilled that action-oriented promise in federal office by introducing H.R. 8135, the Cost-of-living Emergency Act, during the same congressional term. The bill’s stated purpose and provisions directly match the promised legislative subject matter, including household cost relief and enforcement-related measures. Because the claim is framed as supporting legislation rather than securing final enactment, introduction and sponsorship of matching legislation count as delivery, with the effort badge reflecting a serious legislative action.
