Evidence

Congress.gov shows H.R.6614 would require Commerce to report to Congress every 90 days on BIS export-control license applications, enforcement actions, and related authorization requests, including the decision on each application and compliance information. The House passed the bill by voice vote on 2024-09-09, but the Senate only received and referred it on 2024-09-10, so it did not become law in the 118th Congress.

Strong evidence that the 90-day reporting/oversight part of the promise advanced in Congress, but it stalled short of final enactment in the 118th Congress.

Congress.gov shows the 119th Congress version of the export-control transparency bill became Public Law No. 119-34 on 2025-08-19. The enacted text requires BIS to provide Congress annual reports on export-control licensing, enforcement actions, and other authorization requests, but it does not impose a 90-day decision deadline for BIS license decisions.

The reporting and oversight component was ultimately delivered in law, but the 90-day licensing-decision requirement was not enacted in the final law as shown on Congress.gov.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

The promised legislation had two main components: a 90-day BIS export-license decision requirement and increased reporting/audit oversight. The later enacted 119th Congress bill delivered the reporting and oversight elements through annual congressional reporting requirements, and Issa’s related House bill in the 118th Congress materially advanced the issue. However, the final public law did not include the promised 90-day license-decision deadline, so the full promised outcome was not delivered. Because a substantial part became law during Issa’s continuing federal service, this is partial delivery with same-term timing and an effort badge.
