Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The House Clerk records Bean voting for final passage of H.R. 1, tying him to legislation CBO estimated would increase deficits and debt.
the $1.5 trillion reduction in projected deficits estimated to result from the FRA over the next 10 years reduces projected federal debt held by the public in 2033 by about 3 percent, from $46.7 trillion (or 119 percent of gross domestic product, or GDP) to $45.2 trillion (or 115 percent of GDP).
Fetched verbatim passage. AI summary (separate from source): CBO found the enacted Fiscal Responsibility Act produced meaningful projected deficit reduction, supporting partial same-term delivery but not full debt control.
Public state: unverifiedAs of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): partial.same_termA for effort
Bean took concrete same-term action toward the promise by voting for the Fiscal Responsibility Act of 2023, an enacted spending-cap and debt-ceiling law that CBO estimated would reduce projected deficits by about $1.5 trillion and lower projected debt compared with baseline. He also supported the Limit, Save, Grow Act, a serious but unenacted deficit-reduction proposal, and later held a visible leadership role in the DOGE Caucus. However, the evidence does not show that federal spending or the national debt were brought under control, and his later vote for H.R. 1 weighed against debt control because CBO estimated it would increase deficits and debt. The promise is therefore partially fulfilled through meaningful effort and limited enacted deficit reduction, not fully delivered.
