Evidence
Recent Votes shows that on 5/14/2026 Golden voted Nay on H. Con. Res. 75, "Directing the President, pursuant to section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution, to remove the United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran," which failed.
The official recent-votes page for Jared F. Golden shows his latest recorded House votes on June 11, 2026, on unrelated measures (H. Res. 1335 and H.R. 9238); no Iran war-powers vote appears in the June 16-18 lookback window.
House Roll Call 199 on H. Con. Res. 86 was a June 3, 2026 vote on agreeing to a War Powers resolution directing removal of U.S. forces from hostilities with Iran. The Clerk records the measure as passed, 215-208, and lists Golden (ME) as voting Yea.
GovInfo bill text for H. Con. Res. 86 states that Congress directs the President under War Powers section 5(c) to remove United States Armed Forces from hostilities against the Islamic Republic of Iran unless Congress explicitly authorizes force, with an imminent-attack defense exception.
GovInfo identifies H. Con. Res. 86 as a 119th Congress, 2nd Session House concurrent resolution titled to direct the President under section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution to remove U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities with Iran.
Assessments
Golden's promise was to vote in favor of a clean War Powers resolution removing U.S. forces from hostilities against Iran. Although he voted Nay on H. Con. Res. 75 on May 14, 2026, the later and operative evidence shows he voted Yea on H. Con. Res. 86 on June 3, 2026. That measure matched the promised Iran War Powers removal language and passed the House during his current federal House term, so the promise was fulfilled.
Jared F. Golden did not vote in favor of the clean Iran war powers resolution; the House record shows he voted Nay on H. Con. Res. 75 on May 14, 2026, and the measure failed. That means the promised outcome was not delivered, and there is no later-term completion attributable to him.
Golden promised to vote in favor of a clean war powers resolution removing U.S. forces from hostilities against Iran. The relevant House vote occurred on May 14, 2026, during his current federal term, on H. Con. Res. 75. He voted Nay, so he did not fulfill the promised action. Because his action opposed the promised outcome rather than materially advancing it, no effort badge is warranted.
