Assessments

Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): never. unknown A for effort

Carbajal made a serious legislative effort toward this promise, but the promised outcome was not delivered. He sponsored H.R. 7133, the Naomi Schwartz and Susan Rose Safe Parking Act of 2024, which Congress.gov shows was introduced on January 30, 2024 and remained at the introduced/referred stage without becoming law. He also reintroduced the proposal in a later term on August 27, 2025, but the available evidence still shows only a renewed attempt to make safe parking programs eligible for federal housing grants, not an enacted change that actually unlocked nationwide federal funding. Under the scoring rule for a serious but unsuccessful attempt, this is never with effort credit.
