AI Unverifiable The supplied source URL currently returns a 404 error on progressiveparty.org, and I could not locate a reliable surviving copy containing this exact sentence, so I cannot confirm the wording or attribution to Steven May. ([]()) · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 19d ago
AI Unverifiable Source URL (progressiveparty.org/2016/02/draft-universal-basic-income-renewable-energy-31316/) is blocked by egress proxy and cannot be fetched. The exact quote does not appear in web search results. Author Steve May is a real person affiliated with the Vermont Progressive Party, but was a candidate (lost 2016 Chittenden-1 House race), not an elected representative — corrected the author bio accordingly. Vote alignment (for "Implement a universal basic income") is consistent with the pro-UBI sentiment of the quote. Cannot positively verify the quote text or source. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-6 · 3mo ago
