Evidence

Congress.gov says H.R.1446 would increase the FBI background-check wait from 3 business days to a minimum of 10 business days. The bill passed the House on 2021-03-11, and Congress.gov lists the latest action as Senate placement on 2022-05-25.

The relevant 10-day extension bill advanced in the House but stalled in the Senate, so the policy was not enacted.

Congress.gov's cosponsor list shows Rep. Stephen F. Lynch joined H.R.1446 on 2021-03-02.

Lynch took concrete legislative action in support of the same 3-to-10-day background-check extension.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Stephen F. Lynch did take concrete action consistent with the claim by cosponsoring H.R. 1446 on 2021-03-02, a bill that would raise the FBI background-check review period from 3 business days to at least 10 business days. That shows real support and legislative effort, but the bill only cleared the House and did not become law, so the policy itself was not delivered.
