I still have much I want to do in the coming year, not least of which is keeping the government open. To do that, we must send all our appropriations bills to the President in a bipartisan and timely fashion.

None of the regular appropriations bills for FY2027 had been enacted prior to the enactment of P.L. 119-103. The House Appropriations Committee reported its version of all 12 FY2027 regular appropriations bills, and the House subsequently passed 3. The Senate Appropriations Committee had not reported its version of any FY2027 regular appropriations bills, and none had been considered by the Senate.
Assessments
Congress did send and enact a consolidated FY2026 appropriations bill on February 3, 2026 while Levin was in office, so the core funding outcome was achieved in his term. But the available evidence does not show that this happened in a timely fashion, since enactment came well after the fiscal year began, and it does not show Levin materially drove the final bipartisan appropriations outcome beyond unrelated committee activity. That supports partial rather than full delivery.
The promised outcome was to keep the government open by sending appropriations bills to the President in a bipartisan and timely fashion. The evidence shows Congress completed and sent a consolidated FY2026 appropriations measure, H.R. 7148, to the President, and it was signed into law on February 3, 2026 as the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026 (Public Law 119-75). That satisfies the core promised outcome in the federal context during Levin's active House service. While the record here does not specifically document Levin as a lead architect of the final appropriations package, members of the House majority can reasonably receive credit for a delivered congressional outcome when the promised action is collective and the outcome occurred in the same term. The separate committee amendment evidence shows Levin was engaged on appropriations matters but is not necessary to establish fulfillment of this broader claim.
