Evidence

Sponsor: Rep. Jack, Brian [R-GA-3] (Introduced 07/23/2025). Latest Action: House - 01/21/2026 Ordered to be Reported (Amended) by the Yeas and Nays: 30 - 4. Tracker shows status Introduced, and the bill text includes a minimum payment to boxers of $150 per round.

Jack introduced the bill and it advanced through committee, but as of the latest official Congress.gov status in the lookback window it had not yet become law; this is a serious step toward the claim but not full delivery within the claim window.

The introduced bill provides that "a promoter or unified boxing organization shall pay a minimum of $150 to each boxer for each round in a match in which the boxer participates."

The introduced bill itself contains the national minimum payment-per-round provision, directly matching the claim’s policy content.

H.R. 4624 "provides new safety measures" and "ensur[es] minimum per-round pay and medical insurance coverage for all professional boxers." The release says the House passed the bill on March 24, 2026.

Official committee press release confirms House passage and that the bill includes minimum per-round pay, showing substantial legislative progress toward the claim.

Brian Jack’s office stated that the House passed H.R. 4624 by voice vote and described the bill as the first boxing legislation to pass the House in 26 years; it also notes committee markup approval on January 21, 2026.

Jack publicly claimed House passage, corroborating that he actively pushed the legislation and achieved floor passage in the House, but not final enactment.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Jack directly sponsored H.R. 4624, which explicitly would set a national minimum payment of $150 per round for professional boxers. The bill advanced through committee and then passed the House in March 2026, showing substantial and serious progress attributable to him. But the evidence does not show final enactment into federal law, so the promised outcome was not fully delivered. Because he materially advanced the exact policy during his current term, this merits partial credit with same-term timing.
