Evidence

Kean said he introduced the Local Taxpayer Protection Act of 2026, which would create a DHS grant program for municipalities hosting federal law enforcement processing or detention facilities and let them apply for reimbursement of costs like lost property tax revenue and utility/infrastructure expenses.
Assessments
Kean introduced legislation that would create the requested DHS grant program, which is a serious legislative attempt, but the evidence only shows introduction, not enactment or implementation. That means the promised outcome was not actually delivered; at most this is partial progress toward it.
