The promise was to continue advocating for federal disaster assistance and FEMA/DHS funding for western North Carolina. Evidence from January 14, 2026 shows Foxx said she had advocated with DHS and FEMA for over a year, and DHS then announced nearly $40 million in FEMA Public Assistance grants for affected 5th District counties. Because the commitment was advocacy rather than a guarantee of a specific full funding package, documented continued advocacy paired with an announced federal funding award is enough to count as delivered. The action and outcome occurred while she remained in office, so timing is same_term.
