AI Verified Verified. The official congress.gov PDF is titled “Testimony of Sarah Leggin” and attributes the statement to her on the title page. On page 8, lines 166–168, it contains the submitted wording with only one omitted phrase in the ellipsis: “last year.” That makes the quote a faithful verbatim excerpt with omission, correctly attributed to Sarah Leggin.

AI Unverifiable Quote: Sarah Leggin (CTIA VP, Regulatory Affairs) — "Congress' efforts to avoid a patchwork of state legislation on AI, as well as the FCC's bipartisan decision [...] establishing clear guidance on the use of AI" (2025). The source_url is the official congress.gov witness-statement PDF (Testimony of Sarah Leggin, House Energy & Commerce, dated 2025-06-04) — a legitimate primary source — but WebFetch returns HTTP 403 Forbidden, so I cannot extract the verbatim text from the PDF. Web search confirms the testimony exists (June 4, 2025, on illegal robocalls) and CTIA's documented position favoring a unified federal approach over a "patchwork" of state AI laws. Year (2025) is accurate. Vote alignment checks out: statement 415 "Directing the FCC to address AI-generated robocalls" with Leggin voting "for" — consistent; CTIA endorses the FCC establishing clear federal guidance on AI and addressing AI robocalls. Marking ai_unverifiable only because the primary source URL blocks automated access (cannot confirm the exact PDF wording). · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-8 · 27d ago
