Occurrences
Evidence
S.3984 was introduced March 20, 2024 by Sen. Cornyn for himself and Sen. Coons, among others. Its official title matched the promise: amend the State Justice Institute Act to authorize awards for a State judicial threat intelligence and resource center.
Sen. Coons' official office announced that Coons, Cornyn, Moran, Shaheen, and Whitehouse introduced the Countering Threats and Attacks on Our Judges Act to establish the State Judicial Threat Intelligence and Resource Center, housed within the State Justice Institute.
The Senate floor activity record lists S.3984 as the bill to authorize State Justice Institute awards for a State judicial threat intelligence and resource center; the Judiciary Committee was discharged and the bill passed the Senate without amendment by unanimous consent.
Congress.gov records S.3984 as introduced March 20, 2024, passed by the Senate on June 12, 2024, and later held at the House desk on June 18, 2024. The official title matches the promised State Justice Institute authorization.
S.2379 in the 119th Congress was introduced July 22, 2025 by Sen. Cornyn for himself and Sen. Coons, among others, again to authorize State Justice Institute awards for a State judicial threat intelligence and resource center.
Congress.gov lists Sen. Coons as an original cosponsor of S.2379, records Senate passage by unanimous consent on November 20, 2025, and shows the latest action as House held at the desk.
Assessments
The promise was specifically to introduce and support legislation, not necessarily to secure final enactment. Coons was an original Senate backer of S.3984 in March 2024, publicly supported it through his Senate office, and the bill passed the Senate by unanimous consent in June 2024. He also renewed support for substantially the same legislation in the 119th Congress. Because the promised legislative introduction and support occurred during his Senate term, this counts as delivered with same_term timing.
