The promise was to support legislation recognizing the National Guard Relief Foundation as a military welfare society. Evidence shows Eric Sorensen did exactly that by co-introducing the National Guard Relief Act and publicly backing its purpose. However, the record provided shows introduction and support of the bill, not enactment or completion of the policy outcome. Because he materially acted on the promise but the promised result has not yet been shown to have been achieved, this is best scored as partial rather than delivered.
