Watson Coleman's official House legislation page shows she sponsored H.R.9008, which matches the promised employer break requirements, and her official homepage says she reintroduced the Worker Rights and Support Act in May 2026. That is direct, concrete legislative action by the candidate in her current term, so the promise counts as delivered.
