VERDICT · MISLEADING
The statement describes specific procedural deadlines (May 13 and May 27) attributed to Senator Shelley Moore Capito regarding written questions for the record and a reply deadline for someone named Zeldin. Without access to the referenced acs.org source or contemporaneous Senate records confirming these exact deadlines, the factual accuracy cannot be verified. The specificity of the dates suggests this could be a real procedural notice, but confirmation is lacking.

VERDICT · FALSE
The statement is dated May 1, 2026, which is in the future relative to the present (2025). No record exists of Senator Shelley Moore Capito making such a statement on that date, and the alleged deadlines (May 13 and May 27) do not correspond to any known Senate hearing involving Lee Zeldin in 2025 or 2026.
