Occurrences
Evidence
The official Senate legislation tracker lists S.4570, sponsored by Shaheen on 06/17/2026, as the "U.S. Tech PATH Act."
Assessments
Shaheen appears to have made a serious same-term legislative effort by sponsoring S.4570, the U.S. Tech PATH Act, on June 17, 2026. But the provided evidence does not show that the specific promised outcome—authorizing $500 million over FY26-31 for the CDT fund to implement the U.S. Technology Procurement Program—was enacted or otherwise delivered. Under the stated rule, a substantial attempt without verified delivery is scored as never, with effort credit.
