The promise was narrowly framed as taking a specific oversight action: requesting an FBI briefing. Meng publicly stated on March 13, 2026, that she had already requested such a briefing to ensure law enforcement was responding appropriately in the heightened threat environment. That is direct evidence the promised action was completed during her current term. The later June 2026 FBI-coordination evidence is supportive context but not necessary to establish fulfillment of this particular claim.
