2026

2026-04-24 VOTED CONTRA
Vote contradicts: statement_vs_disclosure
Soto voted against the final budget citing ICE funding concerns, then took credit for $13.4 million in community project funding that was in the same budget — a contradiction the NRCC has seized on in ads targeting his reelection.

2025

2025-06-12 VOTED CONTRA
Vote contradicts: reversal
Soto voted against the SAVE Act requiring proof of citizenship for voter registration in April 2025, then voted to prohibit non-citizen voting in Washington D.C. two months later. The NRCC characterized this as a 'flip-flop' under political pressure in his competitive district.

2024

2024-08-08 VOTED CONTRA
Vote contradicts: statement_vs_disclosure
Soto's progressive environmental branding and 98% LCV score contrast with his top-donor relationship with AIPAC and his vote to censure Rep. Rashida Tlaib — the only Palestinian-American member of Congress — a vote that drew organized protests at his district office.

What this view assembles

  • Promises & violations — every documented commitment + each documented break, with primary sources.
  • Contradiction pairs — fact-against-fact entries from the contradictions ledger; the "said" appears in its year, the "did" appears in its year.
  • Vote-based analyses — for elected officials, every documented case where a vote diverged from a stated commitment.
  • Entity events — major dated events recorded against the entity (acquisitions, indictments, appointments, etc.).

This view DOES NOT auto-detect new drift candidates. It surfaces records that are already on file. If you spot an undocumented inversion, the curator workflow (admin) is where to add it.
