Evidence

Latest Action: 01/05/2021 Became Public Law No: 116-294. Congress.gov summary says the bill reauthorizes the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative through FY2026.

Official legislative record shows Joyce's GLRI bill became law, but only through FY2026, so it does not satisfy the FY2031 target yet.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Joyce appears to deserve substantial credit because his Great Lakes Restoration Initiative reauthorization bill became law on January 5, 2021. But the enacted law reauthorized the program only through FY2026, not through FY2031 as promised. That means he partially delivered the promise's objective, but did not achieve the full stated time horizon.
