Evidence

5/14 Roll Call #170: H.Con.Res. 75, on the resolution directing the President to remove U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities against Iran, Nay. 5/13 Roll Call #159 and #160 related to H.Res. 1275, which included consideration of H.R. 8469 making appropriations for military construction, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and related agencies for FY2027, Yeas. 5/12-5/14 entries show continued floor action on spending and authorization measures.

Recent floor votes show Hamadeh participating in appropriations-related business, but not securing passage of a budget resolution or a broad fiscal-plan reset in the lookback window.

The office published FY2026 CPF Appropriations disclosures listing multiple funding requests, including Phoenix Fire Member Services Building Renovation ($1,500,000), Law Enforcement Simulator Training Equipment ($1,900,000), Police Helicopter ($2,850,000), Police Cruisers ($1,998,000), Veterans Legal Services Hub ($1,000,000), and Radio Communications Upgrades ($2,000,000).

He made concrete appropriations requests for district projects, which is budget-engagement evidence, but it does not establish that he has delivered on passing a budget or living within federal means.

Assessments

partial same_term A for effort

Hamadeh has participated in federal spending and appropriations work during his House term, including votes on appropriations-related rules/measures and published FY2026 community project funding requests. That shows some effort toward budget process engagement. However, the promise was broader: restoring regular budget passage and living within the federal government's means. The available evidence does not show that he personally delivered a comprehensive federal budget reset, balanced-budget outcome, or sustained spending-within-means result. As a first-term House member, his role can support partial credit for participation and advancement, but not full delivery of the promised fiscal outcome.
