GovInfo bill text shows Mr. Mullin introduced H.R. 4376, the AV Safety Data Act. The bill would require NHTSA regulations mandating monthly reports from covered AV entities on miles traveled, injury collisions, and unplanned stoppage events, with public machine-readable publication by NHTSA.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof.

The promise was to support stronger AV safety data reporting requirements, not necessarily to enact them. Mullin directly supported the policy during his House service by signing an April 11, 2024 congressional letter urging NHTSA to require standardized public AV safety data reporting. He later went further by introducing H.R. 4376, the AV Safety Data Act, which would mandate monthly reporting and public publication of AV safety data. Because the support occurred during the same federal term, this counts as delivered with same_term timing.
