ChampionedFact-checker reviewConfidence: 85%

Independent verification confirms both primary sources on Gillen's official House site. She cosponsored H.R. 2555 (SALT Deductibility Act) for full cap repeal, serves on the bipartisan SALT Caucus and is described as 'a leader in the fight to end the unfair double taxation,' joined the NY delegation letter (Feb 8, 2025) to Speaker Johnson and Chairman Smith demanding full repeal, and voted NO on the OBBBA (July 3, 2025) explicitly because it failed to repeal the cap (raising it to $40k instead). This exceeds a single supporting vote and constitutes active championing. The cap was not fully eliminated, so FULL does not apply. Under a nonpartisan standard, a Republican with the same profile (cosponsor of a targeted bill, caucus membership, leadership letter, no-vote on inadequate compromise) would also earn CHAMPIONED.
