Evidence

Self said he introduced the House companion to Senator Tom Cotton’s legislation, the Know Your American Customer Act, to bar illegal aliens from accessing the banking system.

Keith Self took a concrete legislative step by introducing a House companion bill aimed at restricting banking access for people not lawfully present, but the source shows only introduction, not passage or enactment.

The Senate companion bill states it would require financial institutions to verify citizenship and legal status, and was introduced and referred to committee.

This official bill text confirms the policy mechanism behind the promise and shows the related Senate vehicle remains at the introduced-and-referred stage, with no enacted delivery evident in the lookback window.

Assessments

never same_term A for effort

Keith Self made a concrete federal legislative attempt by introducing the House companion to the Know Your American Customer Act during his current House term. The available evidence shows introduction and referral-type activity, not enactment or implementation of a banking-system ban. Because the promised outcome has not been delivered, but Self did make a serious legislative effort toward it, this should be scored as not fulfilled with an effort badge.
