From Wikipedia:

> The SLS was created by an act of Congress in the NASA Authorization Act of 2010, Public Law 111–267, in which NASA was directed to create a system for launching payloads and crew into space that would replace the capabilities lost with the retirement of the Space Shuttle.

SLS was "asked" 13 years ago to launch humans, and we are still waiting for that to happen.

Only because SLS has so far failed to qualify to launch a human.

SLS was on the schedule to launch humans several years ago. However, failing to qualify means that NASA can NOT ask them to launch a human

Unless the Congress makes an act to force them ignore the certification status of SLS.

He says, implying that this is the only thing stopping that from happening.

Is SLS even certified to carry people into space yet?

It better be because Artemis-II will have people aboard Orion.
