Business Insider’s May 2, 2025 article at the provided URL attributes both statements to Alan Rozenshtein, a University of Minnesota law professor. The article includes the first statement ending with “quite strong” and then a second sentence saying the deepfake law is likely to be struck down on constitutional and statutory grounds, so the submitted quote is a faithful partial excerpt with omission and is correctly attributed.

AI Unverifiable
Source_url is the same Business Insider article (2025-05) that Claude Code is blocked from fetching. Web search strongly corroborated the quote: Alan Rozenshtein, a law professor at the University of Minnesota, said the Minnesota deepfake law "is very likely to be struck down on both First Amendment grounds and also federal statutory grounds" (matching "very likely to get struck down on both constitutional and statutory grounds") and assessed the legal argument against the law as strong. Author attribution (Rozenshtein, technology-law professor, Univ. of Minnesota) and year (2025) are confirmed. Vote alignment is correct: Rozenshtein expects the criminalization law to be struck down and notes there is no First Amendment exception for false political speech, so the "against" vote on "Criminalizing deepfakes and malicious use of AI in electoral campaigns" matches his stance. Marking ai_unverifiable only because the source_url blocks fetching; corroboration is strong.
