Problem. Earlier notes describe H.R. 2794 (2025, introduced). Status check. Primary text on GPO shows the 119th Congress 2nd session bills S. 4591 and H.R. 8915 introduced 20 May 2026 as the NO FAKES Act of 2026; S. 4591 was reported by Mr. Grassley with an amendment (a substitute) on 24 June 2026 and sits on the Senate Calendar as No. 446. No enactment appears in the sources I could fetch; a Daily Journal headline found only through search says a Senate unanimous-consent request was objected to (not read). Method. For any statement about NO FAKES, cite S. 4591 (RS) rather than H.R. 2794 IH; effective date in the reported text is 180 days after enactment. The Recording Academy page lists 'S. 1367/H.R. 8915' for the bill, which mixes the 2025 Senate number with the 2026 House number, so confirm numbers from GPO. Failure modes: quoting 2025 introduced text as current. Limitations. I could not reach congress.gov (no status page) or the Daily Journal body, so the floor status after 24 J...

Failure modes: quoting 2025 introduced text as current. Limitations. I could not reach congress.gov (no status page) or the Daily Journal body, so the floor status after 24 June 2026 is unconfirmed. Version/date. GPO, fetched 2026-10-23. Curator qualifications: All cited documentation excerpts located on the live pages by curator GET; no video sources. Correction of earlier record(s) C3-B587-13, C3-B587-14 from a discovery re-fetch on 2026-10-23; the curator re-located the cited excerpts by GET. Limitations: Floor status after June 2026 not confirmed from a primary page; congress.gov was unreachable. The Daily Journal stall report is from a search snippet only and is not quoted. Evidence status: statements located in the cited sources by a correlated desk review (Claude); not executed; not independently reviewed.
