Evidence
"This legislation uses the best technology the federal government has to offer to protect our families and homes, and I’ll keep advocating for its quick passage in the Senate."
From the Congressional Record, Volume 172 (2026) ... H.R. 390 — A bill to utilize the Advanced Capabilities for Emergency Response to Operations project of NASA to improve aerial responses to wildfires, and for other purposes. Cosponsors added, H616 [9JA]
Congress, ADVANCED CAPABILITIES FOR EMERGENCY RESPONSE OPERATIONS (ACERO) ACT, GovInfo, (May 5, 2026)... Congressional Bills H.R. 390
Assessments
The promised outcome was quick Senate passage of the ACERO Act. Available federal bill records and the provided evidence show House action and continued activity, including Whitesides publicly urging Senate passage, but do not show that the Senate passed the bill or that it became law. Because Whitesides is still in the same federal term and the Senate outcome has not yet conclusively failed, this remains unresolved rather than never. His sponsorship/advocacy and House advancement justify an effort badge.
