Evidence

"successfully had his bill the Railway Safety Act amended into the BUILD America 250 Act—a major transportation bill" and "it passed 54-11."

Deluzio says his Railway Safety Act language was inserted into the House transportation bill and approved in committee, a concrete legislative advance but not final enactment.

The committee "approved H.R. 8870, the BUILD America 250" after a "14-hour legislative markup"; the bill "improves rail safety" and is a bipartisan surface transportation reauthorization bill.

Official committee action confirms the broader vehicle carrying the rail-safety provisions cleared committee, but there is no indication the Railway Safety Act itself became law.

The page lists "T&I Committee Approves BUILD America 250 Act" and the bill's investments include "$64 billion in authorized funding for Amtrak and competitive rail grant programs" and rail safety-related provisions.

Committee materials show the rail policy vehicle moved forward and included rail safety investments, but not final presidential enactment of Deluzio's standalone promise.

Deluzio and colleagues "introduce the Railway Safety Act of 2026" and state that the bill would make freight rail safer.

This shows continued effort in the current term, but it is introduction only and does not show passage or enactment.

The Railway Safety Act of 2026 was introduced; the press release describes it as a re-introduction and says it would "remove duplicative language" and use real-time data to implement improvements.

Senate introduction confirms the policy remained active in the current Congress, but again there is no evidence of final passage into law.

Tracker status is "Introduced" and latest action is referral to the Subcommittee on Railroads, Pipelines, and Hazardous Materials.

The legislative record shows the House Railway Safety Act of 2025 did not advance beyond introduction and referral, indicating no law from that version.

The promise was to pass the Railway Safety Act and have it signed into law. The evidence shows Deluzio introduced and reintroduced Railway Safety Act legislation and materially advanced some of its provisions by getting language amended into the BUILD America 250 Act, which passed committee. However, there is no evidence that the Railway Safety Act itself passed both chambers or was signed into law, nor that the broader vehicle carrying his provisions became law. Because he made a serious legislative effort and achieved committee-level progress but did not deliver final enactment, this is best scored as not fulfilled with an effort badge.
