The official homepage's latest news item in the lookback window is "Congressman Johnson Honors Local Small Businesses During Small Business Month" (May 21, 2026).

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): In the last 30 days, the official site shows general district/news activity but no second-look or sentencing-reform announcement, bill action, or endorsement tied to the claim. That leaves the promise unresolved.

This promise is about supporting qualifying federal second-look legislation, so sponsorship, co-sponsorship, a vote, or a clear public push for such a bill would be enough to count as delivery even if the bill did not become law. In the record provided, and in a check of Johnson's current official House materials, there is no concrete evidence tying him to a qualifying second-look bill or comparable action on this specific promise. Because he remains in office and the absence of evidence is not the same as proof he refused or failed after a serious attempt, the best judgment is unresolved rather than never.
