The Right to Representation Act would amend Title IV-E of the Social Security Act to direct states to guarantee independent legal representation for children and parents involved in child protection court proceedings.
Direct states to guarantee independent legal representation for children and parents involved in child protection court proceedings.
Occurrences
Evidence
Scanlon's official homepage shows June 2-11, 2026 activity on unrelated bills and statements plus recent votes, but no announcement, bill, or action about guaranteeing independent legal representation for children and parents in child-protection proceedings within the lookback window.
Assessments
The provided evidence only shows that Rep. Scanlon’s recent official activity did not include any announcement, bill, vote, or other action tied to guaranteeing independent legal representation for children and parents in child-protection court proceedings. That absence in a short recent window is not enough to show the promise was delivered, partially delivered, or definitively failed across her federal service. No enacted federal measure, successful directive to states, or documented material advancement by the candidate is provided here, so the claim cannot be adjudicated beyond unresolved on this record.
