H.R. 8466 was introduced in the House (Mr. Biggs of Arizona, for himself and Mr. Subramanyam) and referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform; last action listed April 23, 2026.

GovInfo bill record for H.R.8466 confirms the bill text and that it was formally introduced and referred to committee in April 2026; no committee report, floor passage, or enactment is shown as of the record date, indicating the proposal remains pending rather than delivered.

Assessments

unresolved unknown A for effort

Biggs introduced H.R. 8466 (the TRUE Accountability Act) in April 2026 to require agencies to develop fraud-prevention plans during emergencies, and publicly promoted the bill. The measure was referred to committee and, as of the available records, has no committee report, floor passage, or enactment. Because the proposal remains pending rather than enacted or definitively failed, the promise is unresolved; the candidate did make a legislative effort.
