Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Official committee record confirms the infrastructure package Onder cited advanced out of committee during the lookback window. Because it had not become law by 2026-06-04, this supports partial delivery.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Establishes the relevant federal term and shows Onder holds committee assignments directly related to innovation, transportation, water, and infrastructure policy.

The letter, signed first by Robert F. Onder, Jr. and Chris Deluzio, urges USACE to establish an Inland Navigation Construction Organization to improve inland navigation modernization oversight.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): A primary signed letter shows Onder leading a concrete infrastructure policy oversight request for locks, dams, and inland waterways. It is an effort toward delivery; no agency implementation was shown in the lookback evidence.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): This official member-office record reinforces that Onder took a recent Washington policy action on water infrastructure management. The evidence supports partial delivery because it is advocacy and oversight pressure, not completed infrastructure development.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The official bill record shows a federal infrastructure-development package in Onder's committee during his term. It supports partial delivery because introduction/referral is progress, not final enactment.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Bill text confirms the package substantively matches both infrastructure development and innovation policy. It remains partial because the text reviewed was introduced-stage bill text, not enacted law.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): This corroborates a concrete same-term infrastructure oversight request on inland waterways. It is secondary evidence, useful because the signed letter was not accessible, and supports partial delivery through advocacy rather than completed infrastructure development.

Congress.gov lists H.R. 6938 as becoming Public Law 119-74 on Jan. 23, 2026; its summary says the law funds agencies and activities including NASA, NSF, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers civil works projects, DOE, Interior, EPA, and related agencies.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): This is enacted same-term federal policy funding science/innovation and Corps infrastructure activity. Because it is a broad appropriations law rather than a targeted Onder initiative, it supports partial fulfillment.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Confirms that one same-term measure Onder supported became law. The law provides stronger evidence of enacted policy than the pending BUILD America 250 Act, but it is still only partial relative to the full innovation-and-infrastructure promise.

The Clerk recorded Roll Call 286 on H.R. 6500 on Sept. 1, 2026; the motion to concur in the Senate amendments passed 370-48, and Robert F. Onder, Republican of Missouri, voted Yea.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): Onder personally voted for the stopgap funding and extensions bill that subsequently became law. This is concrete same-term action tied to infrastructure continuity, but only partial fulfillment because it was not a full innovation-and-infrastructure package.

The Transportation and Infrastructure Committee stated that H.R. 6500 continues federal surface transportation programs through Dec. 11, 2026, and that passage prevented a lapse. The same statement said a multi-year surface transportation reauthorization remains a priority and that H.R. 8870 still needs to move through the legislative process.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The latest official infrastructure-specific update found near the lookback window shows a short-term extension was achieved, while the larger BUILD America 250 Act remained unresolved. That reinforces partial delivery rather than full delivery.
