Occurrences

My bipartisan legislation puts an end to that by requiring United States representatives at international financial institutions to oppose the use of American taxpayer money to fund foreign shrimp farming and processing.

Nehls commits to using his legislation to direct U.S. representatives at international financial institutions to vote against funding foreign shrimp farming and processing.

H.R. 2071 requires the United States to oppose financing for foreign shrimp farming through the international financial institutions, supporting American shrimp producers facing unfair foreign competition.

Nehls sponsored H.R. 2071, which would direct U.S. representatives at international financial institutions to oppose financing for foreign shrimp farming.

Evidence

Roll Call 156 shows the House voted on H.R. 2071, the Save Our Shrimpers Act, on May 12, 2026, under a motion to suspend the rules and pass as amended. The vote passed 391-18-1.

The House approved Nehls's shrimp-related IFI bill, showing concrete legislative progress but not final enactment.

GovInfo lists H.R. 2071 as 'Received; read twice and referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations' on May 13, 2026, indicating the House-passed bill moved to the Senate.

The bill advanced to the Senate and was referred to Foreign Relations, but no Senate passage or enactment is shown.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Nehls backed H.R. 2071, the Save Our Shrimpers Act, and the House passed it on May 12, 2026 (391-18-1), then the bill was received in the Senate on May 13, 2026. That is a concrete legislative advance on the claim, but there is no evidence of final enactment or a binding requirement on U.S. representatives at international financial institutions, so the promise was only partially delivered.

partial same_term A for effort

Nehls materially advanced the promised policy through H.R. 2071, the Save Our Shrimpers Act, which the House passed 391-18-1 on May 12, 2026 and sent to the Senate on May 13, 2026. However, the evidence does not show Senate passage, presidential signature, or enacted law requiring U.S. representatives at international financial institutions to oppose funding foreign shrimp farming or processing. This is substantial same-term progress but not full delivery.
