Reschenthaler introduced the exact reauthorization bill, but the House measure remained in introduced/referral status and shows no House passage, Senate passage, or enactment as of the evidence date. That is a serious legislative attempt, but the promised outcome was not delivered.

Reschenthaler did materially pursue the promise by sponsoring H.R. 5282 in 2025, and the bill text matches the promised policy by extending the relevant COPS-related mental health grant authority from 2025 through 2029. However, the House bill remained only introduced and referred to committee, with no evidence of House passage, enactment, or any final change in law. A parallel Senate bill advanced to the Senate calendar, which shows broader legislative movement on the issue, but that still does not establish completion of the promised outcome. Because the promise was specific to reauthorizing the funding through 2029 and that reauthorization had not been enacted, the promise was not delivered. Since he made a serious legislative attempt by introducing the exact bill, effort credit is warranted.
