Overstated

Why we checked itSpecific vote count attributed to a named opponent on a concrete policy matter — the number of votes and their substance are directly verifiable from congressional records.
What we foundThe number 'six times' is accurate, but characterizing those votes as voting 'to support' the war overstates what the record shows — James voted against six war-powers resolutions to end the conflict, not affirmatively to authorize or start it.
