Evidence

Congress.gov shows H.R. 17 was introduced in the House on March 25, 2025 and referred to the Education and Workforce and Oversight and Government Reform committees; Deborah K. Ross appears in the bill's cosponsor list.

The official congressional record shows Ross actively backed the Paycheck Fairness Act in the 119th Congress, but the bill's latest action remains introduction and committee referral on March 25, 2025, with no later action shown on the page. That supports an unresolved status, not enactment.

Assessments

unresolved same_term A for effort

Ross has taken same-term action consistent with the promise: she is listed as a cosponsor of H.R. 17, the Paycheck Fairness Act, introduced on March 25, 2025, in the 119th Congress. But as of the latest cited action, the bill had only been introduced and referred to committee, with no enactment. In federal context, cosponsoring materially supports the promise to work toward passage, but it is not enough to score the policy as delivered while the measure remains pending.
