Submit · Crowdsource the record

Submit a Promise

Heard a concrete commitment from a public official? Pin it to the record. Every submission enters a human-reviewed queue before it's published.

What counts as a trackable promise?

A promise is trackable when it is concrete and falsifiable: tied to a specific action, not a rhetorical aspiration.

Examples of trackable: “I will vote against X bill,” “I will sponsor Y legislation,” “I will not raise taxes on families earning under $Z.”

Human-in-the-loop guarantee: No crowdsourced submission is published automatically. Every submission is reviewed by an editor who independently verifies the source, confirms the evidence chain, and writes the dissent log before any verdict is published. This is our defamation shield — and our promise to you.

Evidence (optional)

If you already know of a vote, bill, or record that speaks to this promise, share it. Our editors will verify independently.

Select PENDING if you're not sure — editors make the final call.
