Occurrences

Farm worker programs, for instance, should be updated to allow migrants to legally register to work in the U.S. for a short period of time and return to their home country. These programs should be streamlined to be more efficient for employers.

Crank said worker visa programs should be reformed, including updating farm worker programs so migrants can legally register for temporary work and employers can use the programs more efficiently.

Evidence

Congress.gov bill text creates a streamlined electronic H-2A platform, a single employer access point for filings, interagency review, notices, appeals, visa/admission processing information, and an online job registry for H-2A job orders.

The main 119th Congress bill matching the promise would reform agricultural temporary worker processing, but this text alone does not show enactment or Jeff Crank participation.

Text - H.R.3227 - 119th Congress (2025-2026): Farm Workforce Modernization Act of 2025
secondary · model gpt-5.5 · confidence 86%

Contest this evidence item

Congress.gov lists H.R.3227 as sponsored by Rep. Zoe Lofgren, referred to House committees on May 7, 2025, and still at step 1, Introduced, rather than passed or enacted.

A directly relevant farm worker visa reform bill had not become law by the assessment date, so the promised reform was not delivered through this legislation.

Contest this evidence item

Congress.gov lists 10 current cosponsors for H.R.3227: Newhouse, Simpson, Costa, Valadao, Gray, Carbajal, Salazar, Harder, Vindman, and Schrier. Jeff Crank is not listed.

Crank did not cosponsor the principal 119th Congress farm workforce modernization bill, so there is no clear legislative effort by him on this vehicle.

Congress.gov lists H.R.4393, a broad immigration bill, as sponsored by Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar, referred to multiple House committees on July 15, 2025, and still at the Introduced stage.

A broader immigration reform vehicle in the same Congress also had not passed the House, Senate, or become law by July 1, 2026.

Contest this evidence item

Congress.gov lists 39 H.R.4393 cosponsors and only one from Colorado, Rep. Gabe Evans. Jeff Crank does not appear in the cosponsor list.

Crank did not cosponsor this broad immigration reform bill, further limiting evidence of concrete action toward the worker visa promise.

Assessments

never same_term

As of the July 1, 2026 assessment date, no relevant worker-visa or farm-worker visa reform had been enacted during Jeff Crank's first House term. The directly related Farm Workforce Modernization Act of 2025 and broader DIGNIDAD Act remained introduced and unenacted, and the evidence shows Crank did not sponsor or cosponsor those vehicles. Because there is no shown serious legislative or executive effort by Crank, this is not delivered and does not merit an effort badge.
