GovInfo's engrossed House text states H.R.6472 passed the House on 03/04/2026 and would bar higher tuition for covered territorial residents at public institutions receiving HEA assistance.

The bill Plaskett supported contains the promised tuition guarantee and advanced through House passage, though House engrossment alone is not final enactment.

Assessments

delivered later_term A for effort

Plaskett directly supported legislation matching the promise by serving as an original cosponsor of H.R.6472, which would guarantee in-state tuition treatment for covered territorial residents at federally assisted public institutions. The bill also passed the House on March 4, 2026. Because the promise was to support such legislation, not necessarily secure full enactment, this counts as delivered, with timing marked later_term based on the provided evidence context.
