requiring federal agencies to use objective, high-quality data when writing rules that affect workers, families, farmers, and job creators
Require federal agencies to use objective, high-quality data when writing rules that affect workers, families, farmers, and job creators.
Occurrences
It strengthens oversight, raises information standards, and blocks costly regulations built on flawed or incomplete analysis.
Evidence
The House passed H.R. 6329, the Quality Information Assurance Act. The press release says the bill would require federal agencies to use objective, high-quality data when writing rules that affect workers, families, farmers, and job creators.
Assessments
McClain materially advanced the pledge by sponsoring H.R. 6329, and the House passed it in February 2026. But the promise was to require federal agencies to use objective, high-quality data when writing rules, and the available evidence does not show the bill became law or otherwise imposed that requirement across federal agencies. Because there was a serious legislative attempt in her term without final enactment, this is best scored as never rather than delivered.
