Evidence

The Healthcare issue page lists the HEAL for Immigrant Families Act under Escobar's supported legislation and describes it as restoring Medicaid and CHIP eligibility for lawfully present immigrants and DACA recipients.

Official House-office page directly confirms Escobar supports the HEAL Act; this satisfies the promise to back the bill even though the bill's enactment status is separate.

The promise is framed as supporting the HEAL for Immigrant Families Act, not guaranteeing its enactment. Escobar's official House healthcare page explicitly lists the HEAL Act as legislation she supports and describes the same policy goals in the claim, so the promised action was carried out while in office.
