Assessments
Goodlander promised to support repealing the Hyde Amendment. In office, she acted consistently with that promise by serving as an original cosponsor of the EACH Act, legislation described as ending the Hyde Amendment. Because the commitment was to support repeal rather than guarantee enactment, this legislative support fulfills the promise during the same term.
