Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): A House floor rule for the FY2027 NDAA failed the day before the assessment date, so the promise to pass the bill through Congress and have it signed into law had not been delivered as of July 1, 2026.

CRS status table lists H.R. 8800 as passed House on July 22, 2026, but shows no Senate passage, no resolving-differences entry, and no public law/date signed; the report states the FY2027 NDAA has not been enacted.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): As of the September 1 CRS update, the FY2027 NDAA still had not cleared the Senate, conference/resolution, or presidential signature, so Rounds’s promised enacted-law outcome remained undelivered after the lookback check found no newer enactment action.

Assessments

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

The promised outcome required the FY2027 NDAA to pass Congress and be signed into law. The record shows meaningful same-term progress: Rounds held relevant Senate Armed Services roles, SASC advanced and filed S. 4784, and the House passed H.R. 8800 on July 22, 2026. But the available status through the current assessment window shows no Senate passage, no final bicameral agreement, and no presidential signature. Because Rounds materially participated in a serious legislative attempt but the enacted-law outcome has not been delivered, this is best scored as not delivered with an effort badge rather than full or partial delivery.

As of July 1, 2026, the FY2027 NDAA had not passed both chambers of Congress and had not been signed into law. The Senate Armed Services Committee advanced and filed S. 4784, and Rounds held relevant SASC roles, so there was a serious same-term legislative effort. However, the promised final outcome was enactment, and the House rule for H.R. 8800 failed on June 30, 2026, leaving the bill short of House passage, Senate final passage, conference completion, and presidential signature.
