Evidence

Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) and Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) introduced the 21st Century Entrepreneurship Act to connect students in 21st Century Community Learning Centers (CCLC) with mentors from SCORE to teach entrepreneurship.

Official Senate press release (Blackburn office) announces Blackburn as an introducer/co-sponsor of bipartisan 21st Century Entrepreneurship Act (April 8, 2026). This is direct evidence Blackburn introduced and publicly supported bipartisan legislation to help young entrepreneurs. No later Blackburn press release or roll‑call or reintroduction was found in the lookback window (May 24–26, 2026); the most recent documented action is this April 8, 2026 release.

Senator Catherine Cortez Masto (D-Nev.) and Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) announced joint introduction of legislation to connect CCLC students with SCORE mentors (press release dated March 23, 2026).

Official Senate press release (Cortez Masto office) documents the bipartisan introduction of the same entrepreneurship mentorship bill (March 23, 2026). Together with Blackburn's April 8 release, this corroborates that Blackburn both introduced and supported bipartisan legislation aimed at supporting young entrepreneurs. No congressional enactment or subsequent Senate action was located in the May 24–26, 2026 lookback window.

The bill text says: "Ms. CORTEZ MASTO (for herself and Mrs. BLACKBURN) introduced the following bill" and identifies it as the 21st Century Entrepreneurship Act.

The text names Blackburn as an introducer and shows the bill would require SBA entrepreneurship curriculum and SCORE partnerships for community learning center students.

The promise was specifically to introduce and support bipartisan legislation, not necessarily to secure enactment. The evidence shows Blackburn, a sitting U.S. Senator, introduced and publicly supported the bipartisan 21st Century Entrepreneurship Act with Democratic Senator Catherine Cortez Masto in 2026, aimed at connecting students with SCORE mentors and entrepreneurship education. That directly satisfies the claimed action during the same federal term.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn and Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto jointly introduced the bipartisan 21st Century Entrepreneurship Act (press releases dated Mar 23 and Apr 8, 2026) to connect students with SCORE mentors. The promise was to "introduce and support bipartisan legislation to support young entrepreneurs," which is directly satisfied by this joint introduction while Blackburn is in office. No further legislative enactment is required to count as fulfilling the pledge to introduce and support such legislation.
