Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): never. unknown A for effort

Langworthy directly sponsored H.R.291, the CAREERS Act, in January 2025 to reauthorize and expand the RISE Grant Program for rural career pathway training and sector partnerships. Similar language also advanced in House-passed H.R.7567 in April 2026. However, the available record shows no final enactment or implemented federal program change, so the promised expansion was not delivered despite a serious same-term legislative effort.
