The promised action was to support DOJ cybersecurity and IT modernization. Although Alford voted against the FY2024 package containing similar DOJ cybersecurity funding, he later voted Yea on H.R. 6938 in January 2026, which included DOJ information-sharing technology, enterprise IT modernization, litigation support IT projects, cybersecurity, and hardening of critical networks. That bill passed Congress and became Public Law No. 119-74 while Alford was serving a later House term, so the promise is best counted as delivered with later_term timing.
