GovInfo identifies H.R. 1589 as the American Dream and Promise Act of 2025, introduced in the House with Stansbury listed among cosponsors, and referred to the Judiciary and Education and Workforce Committees.
Assessments
Stansbury took direct same-term legislative steps consistent with the promise, including cosponsoring H.R. 1589, the American Dream and Promise Act of 2025, cosponsoring other humane immigration bills, and signing the discharge petition to force consideration of H.R. 1589. But the evidence shows no enacted federal policy providing the promised path to citizenship or broader humane/root-cause immigration reforms, and the discharge petition remained one signature short as of September 2, 2026. This is a serious effort without delivery of the promised outcome.
The promise is broad but outcome-oriented: support humane immigration policies addressing root causes and providing a path to citizenship. The evidence shows Stansbury did take meaningful legislative action by cosponsoring immigration-related bills in the 119th Congress, including the WISE Act and the Reuniting Families Act, both of which align with humane immigration policy goals. However, the record provided does not show enactment, a created path to citizenship, or broader delivery of the promised policy outcomes. Under the rubric, a serious legislative attempt without successful delivery should be scored as never with effort_badge true. Because these efforts occurred during her current service period, timing is same_term.
