The bill states purposes including providing increased choice and opportunity to professional boxers by allowing a boxer to choose to participate in the alternative system offered by a unified boxing organization. It also sets conditions for UBOs covering contracted boxers, medical support, anti-doping, conflicts of interest, and minimum boxer payment.

The bill addresses boxer choice, contracts, safeguards, and payments, but the text found does not expressly require good-faith contract negotiations.

Congress.gov shows H.R.4624 sponsored by Rep. Brian Jack and the latest action as House ordered to be reported amended by a 30-4 vote on 01/21/2026. The tracker still shows the bill status as Introduced, with later steps Passed House, Passed Senate, To President, and Became Law not completed on the page reviewed.

As of the reviewed official record, the legislation Stevens cosponsored had not become law, so the promised requirement was not delivered.

Current U.S. Code already contains section 6307b, Protection from coercive contracts, added by Public Law 106-210 on May 26, 2000. It makes certain coercive boxing contract provisions unenforceable and bars requiring future promotional rights for mandatory bouts.

Federal boxer contract protections predate Stevens' House service and do not show that she fulfilled this specific promise during her tenure.

Assessments

never later_term A for effort

The promised federal requirement for good-faith boxer contract negotiations was not enacted. Stevens cosponsored H.R.4624 in the 119th Congress, a relevant boxing reform bill that advanced in committee, but Congress.gov still shows it had not passed the House, Senate, gone to the President, or become law. Existing federal coercive-contract protections predate Stevens' House service and cannot be credited as fulfillment of this promise. Her cosponsorship counts as a serious legislative effort, but the promised outcome remains undelivered.
