launched the U.S.-Mexico Congressional Caucus. The caucus will serve as a dedicated forum for strengthening the bilateral relationship and facilitating dialogue on trade, security, and cultural cooperation
Launch and lead a bipartisan U.S.-Mexico Congressional Caucus to strengthen the bilateral relationship and facilitate dialogue on trade, security, and cultural cooperation.
Occurrences
Evidence
Greg Stanton’s office announced the launch of the bipartisan U.S.-Mexico Congressional Caucus and said it would strengthen the bilateral relationship and facilitate dialogue on trade, security, and cultural cooperation.
The official launch notice names Joaquin Castro and Rudy Yakym as the caucus co-chairs, and lists Greg Stanton only as an inaugural member, not a leader of the caucus.
Assessments
Stanton appears to have helped launch the bipartisan U.S.-Mexico Congressional Caucus in office, which satisfies the launch portion of the promise. However, the launch materials identify Joaquin Castro and Rudy Yakym as co-chairs and describe Stanton as an inaugural member rather than a leader, so the full 'launch and lead' claim is not fully proven.
