Context: From the campaign website, as saved by the Internet Archive on 2020-11-03, before the election.

Why this status

Ossoff has cosponsored the Equality Act in every Congress since taking office: S. 393 (117th), S. 5 (118th) and S. 1503 (119th). The bill has not passed the Senate.

OUR ANALYSIS based on the evidence below. A vote alone doesn't count as fulfilling a promise.
