Assessments

delivered same_term

The promise was to continue bipartisan work to secure Great Lakes protection funding. During Moolenaar's current federal House term, a FY2026 appropriations package containing Great Lakes-related funding was enacted as Public Law 119-74 on January 23, 2026. The record also shows Moolenaar taking direct, bipartisan legislative action as an original cosponsor of H.R. 1809, a Great Lakes funding/research reauthorization bill. Because the funding outcome became law in the same term and the candidate materially participated in relevant bipartisan Great Lakes funding efforts, this counts as delivered.

The promise was to continue bipartisan work to ensure Great Lakes protection funding. Evidence shows Moolenaar publicly supported GLRI funding, participated in bipartisan Great Lakes reauthorization activity, and the relevant FY2026 appropriations package containing Great Lakes-related funding was enacted as Public Law No. 119-74 on January 23, 2026. Because the funding outcome was enacted during the same term, this is best classified as delivered rather than merely attempted.
