Evidence

The article says Cornyn and Fetterman introduced the LNG Export Security Act to stop future administrations from blocking new LNG export terminals and to limit permitting considerations to domestic economic and national security interests.

Cornyn took a concrete legislative step within the lookback window by co-introducing LNG export legislation aligned with the promise's goal of constraining future administrations.

Assessments

delivered same_term

The promise was to support legislation protecting LNG production and exports from future administrative restrictions, not necessarily to enact such a bill into law. The available evidence shows Cornyn co-introduced the LNG Export Security Act in May 2026, a concrete legislative action directly aligned with that commitment. Because he materially supported the promised type of legislation while in office, this counts as delivered in the same term.
