Malliotakis' campaign said she backed the Support Peaceful Protest Act and pledged that after being sworn in as a Member of Congress, one of her first acts would be to join Rep. Banks as a cosponsor of the legislation.
Assessments
The promise was specifically to join Rep. Jim Banks as a cosponsor of the Support Peaceful Protest Act after being sworn into Congress. Congress.gov's official 117th Congress record for H.R.289 lists eight cosponsors and does not include Nicole Malliotakis, while the cited contrary evidence appears to reflect a Congress.gov search/filter list of possible members rather than the bill's actual cosponsor roster. Her campaign support before taking office does not itself satisfy the promised congressional cosponsorship.
The promise was specifically to co-sponsor the Support Peaceful Protest Act after being elected to Congress. The provided Congress.gov evidence shows Nicole Malliotakis listed as a cosponsor of H.R.289 in the 117th Congress, her first House term after election. Because the promised action was co-sponsorship rather than enactment, this satisfies the commitment in the same federal term.
