The promise was to keep working with the Senate so Virgin Islands priorities would be included in a final reconciliation package. The evidence shows both continued advocacy and eventual inclusion of a concrete Virgin Islands priority: permanent $13.25 rum cover-over treatment in the enacted reconciliation law. Because the promised substantive outcome was achieved, this is delivered, though the cited enactment occurred in 2025 rather than in the same term as the 2021 promise.
