Evidence
The official House homepage says Walberg is serving his eighth term and highlights recent June 2026 updates, including a fraud-focused newsletter item; there is no civil asset forfeiture mention on the page.
The recent-votes list for June 10-11, 2026 shows Walberg voting on H.RES.1335, H.R.8464, and H.R.8312, all fraud-prevention measures; the page contains no forfeiture references.
A text search of the votes-and-legislation page found no matches for 'forfeiture', 'property', or 'proof'.
Assessments
The available evidence does not show that Tim Walberg sponsored, co-sponsored, voted for, or otherwise materially advanced a measure to raise the burden of proof in federal civil asset forfeiture. The evidence mainly shows an absence of forfeiture-related references on his official House pages and recent vote summaries, which is too thin to conclude either delivery or failure of an effort-based promise. Because the record provided does not document a serious attempt or a completed outcome, the safest judgment is unresolved.
