The voting members include an independent member appointed by the President, with Senate consent, having insurance expertise. The nonvoting members include a State insurance commissioner designated by State insurance commissioners.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The underlying statute created FSOC with an insurance-expertise voting seat, but placed the state insurance commissioner in the nonvoting category, which is the status the promise sought to change.

Sponsor: Rep. Downing, Troy [R-MT-2]. Latest Action: House - 01/16/2026 Referred to the House Committee on Financial Services. This bill has the status Introduced.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Downing took concrete same-term action by sponsoring H.R.7130, but the official bill record still shows only introduction and referral to committee, not House passage, Senate passage, presentment, or enactment. The commitment remains unresolved, with a clear effort badge.

Mr. Downing introduced H.R.7130. Section 5 would add a State insurance commissioner as a voting FSOC member and would strike the existing nonvoting state insurance commissioner subparagraph.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The introduced bill text directly targets the promised policy change by converting the state insurance commissioner role from nonvoting to voting, but because this is only introduced bill text, it evidences serious effort rather than delivery.

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): unresolved. same_term A for effort

Downing materially advanced the promised policy in his same House term by sponsoring H.R.7130, whose text would convert the state insurance commissioner on FSOC from nonvoting to voting. However, the bill remains only introduced and referred to the House Financial Services Committee, and current FSOC/US Code membership still lists the state insurance commissioner as a nonvoting member. Because the promised outcome has not been enacted but the term and bill remain active, the correct status is unresolved with an effort badge.
