Assessments
Perry made the pledge while serving in Congress and the available record shows consistent follow-through in that term: he voted for anti-carbon-tax and pro-energy-production measures and introduced H.R. 1562 to roll back federal energy-related credits. That is sufficient candidate credit for opposing the kind of costly energy regulation described in the claim.
Perry's promise was a negative commitment not to support costly new energy regulations. The supplied federal House record shows conduct in the same congressional term consistent with that pledge: he voted for anti-carbon-tax and pro-energy-production measures, supported bills framed as limiting restrictive energy policy, and introduced H.R. 1562 to repeal renewable and alternative energy tax credits. No contrary evidence is provided showing he supported the type of costly new energy regulations he pledged to oppose.
Perry's pledge was a negative commitment not to support costly new energy regulations that would stifle job creation. The provided record shows conduct consistent with that pledge during the same term: he voted for anti-carbon-tax and pro-energy-production measures, supported bills framed as reducing energy-policy constraints, and introduced legislation to repeal certain energy tax credits. No contrary evidence is provided showing that he supported costly new energy regulations. On this record, the promise is best judged fulfilled.
