Assessments
Rep. Dave Min introduced H.R. 8584 on April 29, 2026, which matches the pledge by requiring a Space Command feasibility report on expanding Operation Olympic Defender to additional Indo-Pacific allies. The bill was referred to committee, but there is no evidence that it became law or that the report was actually submitted, so the promise cannot be counted as delivered yet.
