Evidence

House Roll Call 184 on H.R. 2616 (PROTECT Kids Act) was held on May 20, 2026. The Clerk’s record shows Doggett, Lloyd (TX) voted No; the bill passed 217-198.

Doggett cast a No vote on a House bill that advanced a school-related anti-trans measure, which is consistent with the promise to defend equal rights and respect regardless of gender identity.

The Equality Caucus said that after the House passed H.R. 2616, the bill would force schools to out transgender students and would bar schools from teaching or advancing concepts related to transgender people.

Official caucus material identifies the measure Doggett opposed as a forced-outing and 'Don’t Say Trans' bill, strengthening the inference that his No vote aligned with the promise.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Doggett took an official same-term action consistent with the promise by voting No on H.R. 2616, a bill characterized by LGBTQ-equality advocates as targeting transgender students. That vote supports candidate credit for standing up for equal rights and respect regarding gender identity. However, the bill passed the House 217-198, and the evidence shows opposition rather than enactment of a protective equal-rights outcome. Because the promised posture was broad and ongoing, this merits partial fulfillment rather than full delivery.
