Verified: the official Senate page published February 14, 2024 contains this exact sentence, ending with a comma because it is immediately followed by attribution, and the page attributes it to Senator Collins. The stored author, date, source URL, and content match the source.

The official Senate press release dated February 14, 2024 does attribute a very similar statement to Senator Susan Collins, but the verbatim text in the source reads: “...giving up their personal information and hard-earned money,” not the shorter version you provided. Because the supplied quote omits those words without an ellipsis, it is not verbatim as quoted.

Quote attributed to U.S. Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine), 2024, from her statement on the FCC declaring AI-generated robocalls illegal (Feb 8, 2024 FCC unanimous ruling). The collins.senate.gov source URL returns HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but a web search independently confirmed the quote verbatim from her statement: "This unanimous decision from the FCC will help protect Americans from scammers who are using artificial intelligence to try to trick them into giving up their personal information [and hard-earned money]." Year 2024 correct (statement followed the Feb 8, 2024 ruling). Author attribution correct; cited URL is her own primary press statement. Vote "for" on "Directing the FCC to address AI-generated robocalls" correctly aligns: Collins praises the FCC action and states Congress has a responsibility to address AI challenges. Year is older than 2025/2026 but is correctly dated to her specific 2024 statement on this FCC ruling; no cleaner recent replacement on this exact statement was available. Quote is relevant and reflects the statement's meaning.
