Democratic Members ... Ed Case HI - 01
His appointment is only the second time that a Representative from Hawai‘i has landed this key assignment... 'Now that I will be sitting on the Appropriations Committee, I will have the opportunity to deliver as promised.'
Assessments
The promise was to continue serving on the House Appropriations Committee if re-elected. Evidence shows Ed Case was appointed to the committee upon returning to Congress in 2019, remained in the House through subsequent Congresses, and is listed as a current Democratic member of the House Appropriations Committee. Because the promised committee service occurred while he continued serving in the federal office after re-election, this counts as delivered in the same term context.
Ed Case promised that, if re-elected, he would continue serving on the House Appropriations Committee. The evidence shows he was appointed to the committee after returning to Congress in 2019, has served continuously in the House through the 119th Congress, and is listed as a current Democratic member of the House Appropriations Committee. That satisfies the promised outcome, not merely an attempt.
