On Veterans Day, Congresswoman Sarah Elfreth, a member of the House Armed Services Committee and bipartisan Psychedelics Advancing Therapies (PATH) Caucus, introduced the bipartisan Transforming Healing, Resilience, and Integrative Veteran Engagement (THRIVE) Act alongside Representative Derrick Van Orden.

Elfreth's official House site confirms she publicly introduced the veterans health bill tied to the task force commitment, showing active pursuit of the promise but not completion.

Assessments

unresolved same_term A for effort

Elfreth introduced the bipartisan THRIVE Act in the 119th Congress, which would direct VA to establish the promised Task Force on Complementary and Integrative Health and Whole Health. However, the bill remained introduced and referred to committee as of the cited congressional action, so the task force had not yet been established. Because she is still in active federal office and the measure remains pending rather than definitively failed, the proper status is unresolved with credit for a serious same-term effort.
