Foxx is the named author of the promise and the sponsor of the vehicle. Independently re-verified on live primary sources: govinfo confirms H.R. 6951, the 'College Cost Reduction Act,' was introduced by Rep. Virginia Foxx (NC) and reached 'Reported in House' status on Nov 18, 2024 ('Reported with an amendment, committed to the Committee of the Whole House on the State of the Union, and ordered to be printed'), documented in House Report 118-739 (also confirmed live on govinfo). As Chair of the House Education & Workforce Committee she drove the bill through committee markup and to being reported out. The American Council on Education summary (live) confirms the bill's substance matches the promise: Title I Transparency (cost/outcome disclosure), Title II Access and Affordability (aid and student-loan repayment), Title III Accountability and Student Success (institutional accountability). This is far beyond a single supporting vote: she authored and led the effort, so CHAMPIONED (+0.75) is the correct outcome rather than FULL (the standalone bill was not enacted) or a lower tier. Fairness check: a member of either party who authored a signature bill, chaired the committee, and drove it through markup to be reported out would earn CHAMPIONED under the same standard; this is a demanding bar met by clear evidence, not partisan leniency. I could not independently re-verify (web-search budget exhausted; some anti-bot 403s) the prior rating's secondary claim that CCRA provisions were later folded into the 2025 reconciliation package, but that claim is not load-bearing for CHAMPIONED, which rests entirely on the confirmed authorship-and-advancement record. Confidence trimmed slightly from 0.9 to 0.88 to reflect that unverified add-on.
