The promise was to reject corporate PAC donations for Pocan's re-election campaign. The record shows he made the pledge, but later FEC-linked itemized contribution data for the 2025-2026 re-election cycle lists direct contributions from at least one company PAC, with no evidence of a refund or reversal. That contradicts the promised outcome rather than showing delivery. The pledge itself is not a serious legislative or executive attempt, so no effort badge applies.
