Independently re-verified. The promise had two components: (1) a commitment to extend/make permanent the 2017 TCJA tax cuts, and (2) voting for the reconciliation legislation that did so. I fetched the House Clerk roll-call XML directly (curl, HTTP 200) and confirmed both are real and support the outcome: Roll Call 145 (H.R. 1, On Passage, 22-May-2025, Passed) records Walberg (party=R, state=MI) as 'Yea'; Roll Call 190 (H.R. 1, Motion to Concur in the Senate Amendment, 'One Big Beautiful Bill Act', 3-Jul-2025, Passed) records Walberg (R-MI) as 'Aye'. Congress.gov confirms H.R. 1 'Became Public Law No: 119-21' after being 'Signed by President' on 07/04/2025. The enacted OBBBA extended and made permanent the TCJA individual income tax rates/brackets that were set to expire end of 2025. Both the promised vote and the resulting enactment occurred, so the promise was kept in full. Nonpartisan cross-check: a member of either party who voted Yea/Aye at both stages on legislation that became law would earn FULL under the same standard; FULL (not CHAMPIONED) is correct because the promise's metric is the vote for the legislation, which succeeded, rather than a sponsorship/leadership claim.
