Public state: unverified As of unknown · legacy_unverified · . Original AI recommendation (not independently established): partial. same_term A for effort

Carson took concrete federal action aligned with the promise by requesting and advancing FEMA Pre-Disaster Mitigation funding for Indianapolis flood-control and resilience infrastructure, and the House appropriations report listed $1.145 million for that project with Carson as requester. That demonstrates material support for climate/disaster-resilient infrastructure in office. However, the cited record shows a project request and committee-report funding, not clear final enacted delivery of the full promised outcome, so it merits partial credit rather than full delivery.
