Evidence

May 21, 2026: Roll Call 190 on H.R. 1041, Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act, shows Rep. Burgess Owens (UT) voted Yea; the measure passed the House 216-201.

Owens backed a House-passed bill that would prohibit certain VA-to-DOJ data transmission for NICS, a concrete pro-Second Amendment vote within the lookback window.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Owens took a concrete same-term congressional action aligned with the promise by voting Yea on H.R. 1041, the Veterans 2nd Amendment Protection Act, which passed the House on May 21, 2026. That supports credit for fighting restrictions on Second Amendment rights in Congress. However, the evidence shows only House passage, not final enactment into federal law or a completed policy outcome, so this is partial rather than full delivery.
