The site’s latest news section lists the May 19, 2026 announcement of the Corporate Prosecution Reform Act and the Department of Justice Integrity Act, and repeats the one-year cooling-off-period description.

House office homepage corroborates that the proposal was publicly introduced in the current term and remains a live legislative effort, not a past enactment.

Assessments

unresolved same_term A for effort

The evidence shows Scanlon publicly introduced legislation in the current term that specifically includes the promised one-year cooling-off period for prosecutors involved in corporate prosecutions or deferred prosecution agreements. However, the record provided shows introduction and committee referral only, not enactment or implementation. Because this is an active legislative effort with clear candidate action but no completed outcome yet, the promise is best judged as unresolved rather than delivered. Her direct sponsorship and formal introduction warrant an effort badge.
