“Pledged to keep fighting to pass legislation protecting the right to abortion and to get such a bill to the President's desk (the Women's Health Protection Act).”

Assessments
evidence-backed verdictsThese are sourced verdicts from fact-checkers or community evidence reviews — not opinions.
All three cited PRIMARY sources are reachable, support the CHAMPIONED outcome, and the cited quotes appear. (1) Senate.gov Roll Call Vote 170 (May 11, 2022) confirms Murray voted Yea on cloture on the motion to proceed to S.4132; the measure title is quoted verbatim; cloture was rejected 49-51, so the bill never advanced — blocked by the filibuster, not by her. (2) The murray.senate.gov press release headline matches verbatim and is dated March 8, 2023 (WHPA of 2023), i.e. AFTER the 2022-05-06 pledge, documenting her as a named lead among four senators reintroducing the bill — leadership beyond a passive vote. (3) The democrats.senate.gov page confirms 'Not invoked: 49-51' on cloture to S.4132. The promise's ultimate goal (a bill to the President's desk) was not achieved, but CHAMPIONED does not assert it was; it asserts she kept fighting and led the effort, which the sources establish (affirmative vote + named lead-sponsor reintroduction). The rating is supported and not overstated. Verified the 2023 date because the press release content was truncated on fetch and its post-pledge timing is load-bearing for 'kept fighting.'
