Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): delivered. same_term

Lee fulfilled the promise by serving as a House co-lead/original participant in the Artificial Intelligence Civil Rights Act of 2025, introduced in the House on December 2, 2025. The bill’s stated provisions match the promise: preventing discriminatory AI use in critical decisions, requiring pre- and post-deployment testing or assessment, and increasing transparency for consequential algorithmic systems. Because the promise was to introduce legislation rather than enact it, introduction during her active congressional service counts as delivered in the same term.
