Assessments
The promise was to support reintroducing the Prevent Government Shutdowns Act of 2026, not to enact it.

That satisfies the promised action during her current Senate term.
Official Senate and campaign-office evidence shows Britt joined the June 1, 2026 reintroduction of the Prevent Government Shutdowns Act of 2026 as a cosponsor. The claim is about supporting reintroduction of that bill, which was accomplished in her current Senate term even though the legislation itself was not enacted.
