GovInfo lists H.R. 7836 as introduced March 5, 2026, with Goldman among the introducers, to establish United States Immigration Courts independent of the executive branch.
Assessments
Goldman took concrete same-term federal legislative action related to the promise by cosponsoring H.R. 9457 to protect and modernize the Diversity Visa program and helping introduce H.R. 7836 to create independent immigration courts aimed at improving adjudication capacity and administration. These actions materially align with expanding lawful immigration pathways and streamlining immigration processing, including backlog-related reforms. However, the evidence shows the bills were introduced or referred, not enacted, and does not show that the lawful immigration process was expanded, the immigration system was streamlined, or the asylum backlog was cleared. This supports partial credit for serious effort, not full delivery.
