Evidence
The official House office homepage's latest-news block, current as of the lookback window, lists recent items on June 3, May 29, and May 28, 2026, but none mention a data-center study bill or related federal study announcement.
The official press-release feed for June 2026 shows active legislative and statement work on the HEAR Act, Iran war-powers, worker rights, heat emergencies, ICE oversight, and voter registration, but no release announcing a federal study of data centers in the 2026-05-14 to 2026-06-12 lookback window.
The official legislation page lists Watson Coleman's active sponsored and cosponsored bills through late April 2026, and none of the visible entries reference data centers, environmental justice impacts of data centers, or a federal study of those impacts.
Assessments
The available official-member-site evidence does not show Bonnie Watson Coleman delivering this promise or making a documented legislative or executive push to authorize a federal data-center impact study. But the record provided is mostly negative evidence from recent press releases, homepage updates, and a visible legislation page, which is too thin to conclude definitively that the promise was never pursued or never achieved through another vehicle. With no clear bill, amendment, enacted provision, or agency action tied to her, the strongest judgment from this payload is unresolved rather than delivered, partial, or never.
