The promise was specifically to introduce the SEED Act, not to secure enactment. Official bill metadata shows Rep. Mike Carey introduced H.R. 8497, the Supporting Energy and Economic Development (SEED) Act, in the 119th Congress on April 27, 2026, and it was referred to the House Ways and Means Committee. Carey's office also announced the introduction during his current House term, so the promised action was completed in the same term.
