Health care · stated 2025-11-18 · promise source · #47

Why Blocked by others: Crenshaw's own Nov 2025 campaign site says he led this fight and that the provision was stripped from H.R. 1 by the Senate parliamentarian. He voted Aye on final House concurrence in H.R. 1 (roll 190). Rated blocked by others, consistent with his account that the provision was removed in the other chamber, not that he abandoned it.
