Assessments
The evidence shows Haley Stevens took concrete action on the promise by introducing the Hold ICE Accountable Act in March 2026, and the bill specifically aimed to create an independent Special Prosecutor for alleged illegal conduct by DHS personnel after January 19, 2025. That satisfies meaningful pursuit of the promise. However, there is no evidence here that the bill was enacted, that a special prosecutor was actually created, or that the promised investigative mechanism was implemented. Because the promised outcome was creation of the prosecutor, and the record only shows bill introduction and advocacy, this is best scored as partial rather than delivered.
