The promise was to reintroduce the Fair Care Act, and the evidence shows Westerman introduced the Fair Care Act of 2022 on July 28, 2022, during the 2021-2023 House term tied to his 2020 campaign. The bill’s stated goals matched the promised aims: expanding coverage options, protecting people with preexisting conditions, lowering costs, and reducing the uninsured. Later 2024 and 2026 reintroductions further corroborate continued action, but same-term delivery is already established.

Westerman, while serving in the House, reintroduced the Fair Care Act in December 2024 and again in May 2026, and the bill was described with the same goals in the claim: expanding coverage options, protecting people with preexisting conditions, lowering costs, and reducing the uninsured. That is direct fulfillment of the promise to reintroduce the legislation with those policy aims.

The promise was specifically to reintroduce the Fair Care Act with goals of expanding coverage options, protecting people with preexisting conditions, lowering costs, and reducing the uninsured rate. Evidence shows Westerman introduced a Fair Care Act in December 2024 and then reintroduced the Fair Care Act of 2026 on May 14, 2026 with substantially the same stated objectives. Because the promised action was reintroduction rather than enactment, the May 2026 reintroduction fulfills the claim during his current federal House term.
