Murray fulfilled the promised action by publicly calling for and leading a signed Senate letter requesting that the Department of Transportation Inspector General open an investigation into Sean Duffy's corporate-sponsored Great American Road Trip. The promise was to call for an IG investigation, not necessarily to secure the opening or completion of one, so the documented May-June 2026 request satisfies the claim during her current Senate term.
