Evidence

Cantwell’s FY2026 appropriations list says the Alternative Method Harvest Equipment project was requested by U.S. Senator Maria Cantwell for the Confederated Tribes and Bands of the Yakama Nation, with a stated purpose of buying logging equipment to address steep slope acres and reduce landscape fire severity; amount requested: $7,200,000.

Official Senate office disclosure confirms Cantwell submitted the specific FY2026 appropriations request matching the commitment. The page also notes listed projects were submitted requests and were not guaranteed to be funded.

The promise was specifically to request $7,200,000 in FY2026 appropriations for Yakama Nation steep-slope logging equipment, not necessarily to secure final enacted funding. The evidence shows Cantwell’s official FY2026 appropriations disclosure listed this exact project, amount, recipient, and purpose as a request submitted by her office while she remained in federal office. That satisfies the promised action in the same term.
