Evidence

Congress.gov lists Rep. Pete Sessions as sponsor of H.R. 5125, introduced 2025-09-04. It shows the House passed the bill 218-211 on 2025-09-17 and the Senate received it on 2025-09-18; the bill status is Passed House.

Sessions took concrete legislative action on the DC judicial nominations bill, and the House advanced it, but it had not become law and had only reached the Senate as of the latest official status.

Assessments

partial same_term

Pete Sessions took direct creditable action in office by sponsoring H.R. 5125 on September 4, 2025, and materially advancing it to House passage on September 17, 2025. But as of the latest official Congress.gov status, the bill was only received in the Senate on September 18, 2025 and had not passed both chambers or become law. Under a federal legislative promise standard, that is meaningful progress but not full delivery of the promised policy outcome.
