The Congressional Record Index lists Gooden as a cosponsor of H.R. 4607, a bill to prohibit federal funds for higher-education institutions tied to abortion drugs or abortions for students or employees, and also lists his amendment activity on H.R. 4502 appropriations.

This is direct evidence that he advanced anti-abortion-funding legislation and worked on appropriations legislation in the same policy area.

Assessments

The promise was framed as an ongoing commitment to fight government proposals that promote or fund abortion services, not as a pledge to secure final enactment of a specific law. The evidence shows Gooden took concrete same-term legislative actions aligned with that promise, including cosponsoring H.R. 7 to prohibit taxpayer-funded abortions and H.R. 4607 to restrict federal funds tied to abortion access in higher education, along with related appropriations activity. Because the promised action was opposition and legislative advocacy, the available record supports fulfillment rather than merely an unsuccessful attempt at a broader enacted outcome.
