Evidence

Congress.gov lists John Cornyn as a Republican senator from Texas serving in the Senate from the 107th-119th Congresses and lists his member activity, including sponsored legislation. Searches within the retrieved Congress.gov member activity page found no match for "Stop Fueling," "Fueling," "Cartel," or "hydrocarbon."

The official member record establishes the relevant federal service window and available legislative activity, but did not show the promised bill or its key terms in the retrieved member activity.

An exact-title search of Congress.gov legislation records for "Stop Fueling Cartel Violence Act" did not identify an introduced bill by that name in the searched congressional legislation records.

No official Congress.gov bill record was found for the promised act title, which weighs against fulfillment of a promise specifically to introduce that act.

Assessments

never unknown

The promise was specifically to introduce a bill titled the Stop Fueling Cartel Violence Act. The available official-record evidence does not identify any Congress.gov or GovInfo bill record under that title, and searches of Cornyn's member activity and distinctive terms such as hydrocarbon smuggling did not surface a matching sponsored measure. Because no serious legislative attempt tied to this promised act is shown, the outcome is not delivered and does not merit an effort badge.
