Evidence

Her official agenda says data-center peak-demand electricity should face an excise fee, with the proceeds fully rebated to consumers.

This is the clearest official source for the promise. It frames the data-center excise fee and consumer rebate as an agenda item to be pursued, not as an enacted policy.

The Clerk lists April McClain Delaney as the Democratic representative for Maryland's 6th District, with oath of office on Jan. 3, 2025.

This establishes that the relevant federal service period for judging delivery is her House term beginning January 3, 2025.

Congress.gov explains this page lists enacted bills and joint resolutions after NARA assigns public-law numbers; the listed laws do not include a data-center excise-fee rebate law.

As of the available 119th Congress public-law list, there is no enacted federal law matching the promised data-center excise fee rebated to consumers.

Her official votes-and-legislation page points constituents to Congress.gov records for sponsored and cosponsored legislation and shows recent House votes through June 2026.

The official page provides legislative-tracking context, but the visible recent votes do not show passage of a data-center excise-fee consumer-rebate measure.

Assessments

unresolved unknown

McClain Delaney has been in federal office since January 3, 2025, and the cited official agenda describes the data-center excise fee with consumer rebates as a proposal, not an enacted federal policy. The available public-law and legislative-tracking evidence does not show that such an excise-fee rebate measure has passed. Because she remains in office and the relevant term is still ongoing, the promise is not delivered yet but is better treated as unresolved rather than finally failed.
