Today, I voted alongside colleagues from both sides of the aisle to put an end to this out-of-control spending, bring our servicemembers back home to their families, and end the war in Iran.
McDonald Rivet committed to ending U.S. involvement in the Iran war and returning servicemembers home.
AP reports the Pentagon is asking Congress for roughly $80 billion to cover the ongoing U.S. war against Iran and related replacement and operational costs.
The war is still active and the administration is seeking major new funding, which is inconsistent with a completed promise to end the war and bring troops home.

AP reports Vice President JD Vance said U.S.-Iran talks laid a promising foundation for a permanent deal, but technical negotiations continue and a final agreement remains uncertain.
There is diplomatic movement toward ending the conflict, but no final settlement or troop-withdrawal outcome yet, so the promise remains unresolved.

McDonald Rivet said the administration had not explained how it would end the war and that she voted to bring servicemembers home and end the war in Iran.
Official office evidence shows McDonald Rivet took concrete action by voting for a war powers resolution aimed at ending U.S. hostilities and returning servicemembers, but her own statement indicates the war was not yet ended.
The resolution text directs the President to remove U.S. Armed Forces from hostilities against Iran unless Congress explicitly authorizes war or force against Iran.
The bill text matches the promised outcome: ending unauthorized hostilities with Iran and removing U.S. forces. It is evidence of a concrete legislative vehicle, not final fulfillment.
Congress.gov lists H.Con.Res.40 as introduced, sponsored by Rep. Gregory Meeks, referred to House Foreign Affairs, with status shown as Introduced rather than enacted or agreed to by both chambers.
Official Congress status does not show the resolution became final congressional action, so it does not prove the war ended or servicemembers returned home.
The Guardian reported the House passed the Iran war powers resolution 215-208, sending it to the Senate, while sporadic conflict and a U.S. naval blockade continued.
Reporting corroborates House passage and also indicates the broader conflict and military posture had not fully ended after the House vote.
AP framed the diplomacy as talks that could provide a foundation for a permanent deal to end the war, indicating negotiations had not yet produced a final settlement.
Diplomatic movement may point toward a future resolution, but it does not establish that the war ended or that servicemembers were brought home by the assessment date.

The evidence shows the U.S.-Iran conflict is still ongoing and negotiations have not produced a final agreement or troop-withdrawal outcome. There is diplomatic movement, but no completed end to the war or confirmed servicemember return attributable to the candidate, so the promise cannot be marked delivered or even partial on this record.
