Maloy announced she introduced the bipartisan Geothermal Tax Parity Act of 2025, saying it would extend oil-and-gas tax provisions to geothermal projects and remove tax-code barriers to investment.

Concrete geothermal legislative sponsorship, but the bill is a tax measure rather than the specific 60-day geothermal permitting deadline in the promise.

Assessments

unresolved unknown

The available evidence does not show Celeste Maloy sponsoring, co-sponsoring, voting for, or otherwise directly backing legislation with the specific 60-day deadline for geothermal leasing-related application decisions after federal reviews are complete. The only concrete geothermal action in the record is her 2025 Geothermal Tax Parity Act, which concerns tax treatment rather than the promised permitting deadline. Because she remains in federal office and the record here shows no direct delivery or serious attempt on the specific promise, the claim is best scored as unresolved rather than delivered, partial, or never.
