Assessments

delivered same_term A for effort

McGarvey promised to fight in Congress, not necessarily to secure enactment of a specific health-care statute. During his first House term he took concrete federal legislative actions closely matching the promise: cosponsoring the Women’s Health Protection Act for abortion access, cosponsoring the Black Maternal Health Momnibus Act for maternal and newborn health access, voting for the House-passed Lower Costs, More Transparency Act, and introducing health-benefits legislation for miners’ survivors. Some major reproductive and maternal-health bills did not become law, but the promised action was congressional advocacy and legislative effort, which he materially carried out in the same term.
