The promise was to INTRODUCE legislation redirecting U.S. foreign assistance away from Gaza and Hamas-dominated areas to help Israel resupply its Iron Dome interceptors. I independently fetched the primary Hagerty Senate press release and it directly documents this: Hagerty was a named sponsor of S.1751, the "Emergency Resupply for IRON DOME Act of 2021," introduced May 20, 2021 with Sens. Rubio, Cotton, and Cruz. The cited quote appears in the source verbatim (the source's own text reads "live-saving IRON DOME interceptors," a typo the rating rendered as "life-saving" — a trivial, non-substantive difference, not a fabrication). The congress.gov S.1751 record (403 to WebFetch, but confirmed via web search) corroborates: introduced by Mr. Hagerty (for himself, Mr. Rubio, Mr. Cotton, and Mr. Cruz) on 2021-05-20, directing transfer of unexpended Gaza-assistance balances to DoD for Iron Dome grants to Israel, referred to Foreign Relations. Because the promise is the introduction itself, and Hagerty introduced legislation precisely as described on the promise date as a named sponsor, this is a FULL match. The rationale does not overstate — it correctly notes passage/enactment was not part of the promise.
