Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): delivered. same_term A for effort

The promise was specifically to co-lead and reintroduce legislation allowing family caregivers to contribute to a Roth IRA without a yearly income cap. Evidence shows Salazar co-led the Improving Retirement Security for Family Caregivers Act and that H.R. 8274 was introduced in the 119th Congress with Salazar included. Because the promised action was reintroduction and co-leadership, not enactment, this counts as delivered in the same federal term.
