Occurrences
Evidence
Official bill page states H.R. 6260 is “To amend title 18, United States Code, to prohibit fraud in connection with posting bail,” and shows the latest action as “Ordered to be Reported (Amended)” by the House Judiciary Committee on 01/08/2026.
Bill history shows H.R. 6260 was introduced in the House on 11/21/2025, referred to the Judiciary Committee, and had cosponsors added on 01/13/2026; the official history entry repeats the bill purpose to prohibit fraud in connection with posting bail.
The enrolled House text for H.R. 8205 states: “To amend title 18, United States Code, to prohibit fraud in connection with posting bail,” and includes the note “Passed the House of Representatives September 25, 2024.”
Clyde’s vote record lists roll call 454 on 9/25 for “H.R. 8205 On Passage of the Bill” and records his vote as “Yea,” identifying the bill as “Keeping Violent Offenders Off Our Streets Act.”
The Congressional Record page references related House floor activity on H.R. 6260 and contemporaneous bail-related legislation, confirming the measure remained active in the 119th Congress.
Assessments
The promise was to support legislation prohibiting fraud in connection with posting bail. The evidence shows Clyde did support such legislation: he voted for House passage of H.R. 8205 in 2024 and the same policy was reintroduced as H.R. 6260 in the 119th Congress, where it advanced to being ordered reported by committee. However, there is no evidence that the legislation became federal law. Because he clearly backed and advanced the promised legislation but the promised policy outcome has not been fully enacted, this is best scored as partial rather than delivered. The most relevant timing is same_term because the current-congress bill advanced during his present term.
