The sentence is real and appears verbatim in the official docs.house.gov PDF on pages 39–40. However, that PDF is a "Joint Explanatory Statement - Division A" and does not itself name "House Committee on Appropriations" as the author. The explicit official attribution appears in the Congressional Record entry dated January 14, 2026: "EXPLANATORY STATEMENT SUBMITTED BY MR. COLE, CHAIR OF THE HOUSE COMMITTEE ON APPROPRIATIONS," which also contains the exact sentence. So the quote is authentic, but the stored author, source URL, and year-only date are not the best canonical attributed values.

The quoted sentence is real and appears verbatim in the cited Division A PDF under “Artificial Intelligence (AI)-Generated Robocalls,” split across pages 39–40. However, the official front matter and the Congressional Record title attribute the explanatory statement to “Mr. Cole, Chair of the House Committee on Appropriations,” so attributing it simply to “House Committee on Appropriations” is not exact.

AI Unverifiable
Quote attributed to the House Committee on Appropriations from the FY2026 Financial Services and General Government appropriations document. The source_url (docs.house.gov PDF) blocks WebFetch (HTTP 403), as do the related congress.gov committee report (H. Rept. 119-236), the Senate FSGG explanatory statement PDF, and the CRS robocalls report. Independent web searches confirmed that the FY2026 FSGG explanatory statement does direct the FCC to provide briefings/baseline reports within 60 days of enactment and that AI-generated robocalls are an addressed appropriations topic, but I could not retrieve the exact verbatim sentence ("...to brief the Committees on illegal AI-generated robocalls") from any accessible source. Author (House Committee on Appropriations), year (2026), and the "for" vote on statement #415 are all consistent, but because the cited source is inaccessible and the verbatim quote could not be positively confirmed, marking ai_unverifiable rather than verified.
