Assessments

never same_term A for effort

DeLauro did make a serious same-term effort: she sponsored H.R.2763, the American Family Act, in the 119th Congress and continued public advocacy for the expanded, monthly, fully refundable Child Tax Credit. However, the bill record shows it was only introduced and referred to the House Ways and Means Committee, with no evidence that the promised expansion was enacted or otherwise implemented. Because the substantive promised outcome was not delivered, but there was clear legislative effort, this is best scored as never with an effort badge.
