Evidence

GovInfo lists H.R. 7478 as introduced February 10, 2026, with Ms. Craig among the named cosponsors; the last action was referral to House committees.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Craig formally supported the Patient Debt Relief Act in the 119th Congress, but the official record shows only introduction and committee referral, not enactment. Because the pledge was to support the prohibition, cosponsorship of the matching bill satisfies the commitment.

The promise was framed as a commitment to support the policy, not to single-handedly enact it. During her federal House term, Angie Craig cosponsored H.R. 7478, the Patient Debt Relief Act, which directly proposed barring hospitals and assigned debt collectors from using home liens, foreclosure, or wage garnishment to collect hospital medical debt. Although the bill had only been introduced and referred to committee, her formal cosponsorship materially satisfies the pledged support.
