Evidence

GovInfo’s bill record shows that H.R. 7986 was introduced by Rep. Pou on March 18, 2026 and referred to the House Judiciary Committee. The listed purpose is to bar DHS and DOJ civil immigration enforcement within one mile of 2026 FIFA World Cup matches or Fan Festivals.

Official bill text confirms the promise was attempted as introduced legislation, but the bill record shows no enactment or later floor/committee action as of the latest official listing, so the promise remains unresolved.

unresolved same_term A for effort

Rep. Nellie Pou introduced H.R. 7986 on March 18, 2026 to bar DHS and DOJ civil immigration enforcement within one mile of 2026 FIFA World Cup matches or Fan Festivals, directly matching the promised policy. However, the bill has only been introduced and referred to the House Judiciary Committee, with no evidence of enactment or implemented executive restriction. Because she is still in federal office and the proposal remains pending rather than definitively failed, the promise is unresolved, with an effort badge for the serious legislative attempt.
