Evidence

03-20-2026 S.3778 | Carbon Resource Innovation Act. Latest Action: Read twice and referred to the Committee on Finance.

Sheehy's official Senate legislation page shows he sponsored the Carbon Resource Innovation Act, but by the page's 2026-06-05 update its only recorded action was committee referral. That is concrete action, but the promised policy was not enacted by 2026-06-30.

never same_term A for effort

Sheehy materially acted on the promise by sponsoring the Carbon Resource Innovation Act in the Senate, which qualifies as a serious legislative attempt. But the evidence shows the bill had only been read twice and referred to the Senate Finance Committee, with no enactment or completed policy change making the targeted carbon-capture technology eligible for the 45Q credit by 2026-06-30. Because the promised outcome was not delivered, this is not full or partial fulfillment; it is a failed attempt within the same term.
