Assessments
Neguse promised to advance a biodiversity resolution calling for a national commitment and strategy through an interagency process. In the 118th Congress, after the 2022 campaign and during the same House term, he sponsored and introduced H.Res.195, which directly called for a national biodiversity strategy and federal agency coordination. The resolution did not pass, but the promise was framed as advancing such a resolution, not securing enactment, so introduction and sponsorship satisfy the commitment.
