Evidence

H.R. 2851 — A bill to extend immigration benefits to survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, human trafficking, and other gender-based violence, and for other purposes; to the Committee on the Judiciary, and in addition to the Committees on Ways and Means, Agriculture, Education and Workforce, Energy and Commerce, and Financial Services, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker.

Stansbury cosponsored a concrete immigration-reform bill in the 119th Congress that would expand immigration benefits to vulnerable survivors. This is direct legislative action consistent with the claim’s pro-immigration and humanitarian component, but the bill history shown here does not indicate enactment or passage in the lookback window.

This is a March 2026 Congressional Record entry showing Stansbury as a cosponsor on legislation in the same Congress. It is not immigration-specific, but it confirms ongoing active legislative work in the period and supports an active-service context rather than abandonment.

ML-56. Also, a memorial of the Senate of the State of Michigan, relative to Senate Resolution No. 92, urging the United States Congress to restore and strengthen oversight and accountability mechanisms for United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the United States Department of Homeland Security in light of recent events nationwide; which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.

This March 2026 Congressional Record item concerns immigration enforcement oversight and shows continued congressional attention to immigration policy during the lookback window. It does not show Stansbury’s direct action on the claim, but it reinforces that the issue remained active and unresolved in the same term.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

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.
