Evidence
Official Senate release says Menendez and Booker announced more than $4.5 million in federal Sandy relief grants and that Menendez helped lead the New Jersey delegation in the fight for federal Sandy relief. The same release says the President had signed the Sandy supplemental appropriations law the prior year, bringing total Sandy aid enacted by Congress to $60.2 billion.
Assessments
The provided evidence shows substantial federal Sandy aid was enacted and that Senator Robert Menendez helped lead the New Jersey delegation in securing it. However, the candidate context identifies Robert Menendez as the current U.S. Representative for New Jersey's 8th District, which points to a different federal office context than the 2014 Senate evidence. Because the promised outcome appears to have been achieved, but the record supplied does not clearly establish credit for this House candidate in the relevant campaign/office context, full delivery is not warranted.
