Evidence

House press release says Wilson introduced the Transit Workforce Development Act, which would let up to 10% of bus and bus facility grant funds support workforce training, registered apprenticeships, and labor-management partnerships, and says the bill was referred to the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee.

Exact match to the claim, but the public record here shows introduction and committee referral only, not enactment; I did not find a later official enactment in the 30-day lookback window.

Assessments

never unknown A for effort

Wilson appears to have materially pursued the promise by introducing the Transit Workforce Development Act, which directly matched the claimed policy by allowing a portion of bus and bus facility grants to support workforce development, apprenticeships, and labor-management partnerships. But the evidence provided shows only introduction and committee referral, with no enactment or implemented policy change. Under the scoring rule, a serious legislative attempt that did not produce the promised outcome counts as never, with effort credit.
