The quote clearly expresses opposition to bills 'S. 2770 or S. 3875,' but it does not mention deceptive AI-generated media, federal elections, or candidates. Without additional context linking those bill numbers to this specific policy statement, it is not possible to verify that the quote is about the complete statement.

Verified. The official Senate Republican Leader press-release page dated May 14, 2024, titled “McConnell Opening Remarks At Rules Committee Markup On A.I. In Political Speech,” says the remarks were submitted by “U.S. Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell” and includes the exact sentence: “So I will oppose S. 2770 or S. 3875 at this time. And I would urge my colleagues to do the same.” ([republicanleader.senate.gov](https://www.republicanleader.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/mcconnell-opening-remarks-at-rules-committee-markup-on-ai-in-political-speech))

Quote: "So I will oppose S. 2770 or S. 3875 at this time. And I would urge my colleagues to do the same." — Mitch McConnell (2024). The source_url (republicanleader.senate.gov) returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but a web search confirmed the substance verbatim: at the July 2024 Senate Rules Committee markup on AI in political speech, McConnell stated he would oppose S. 2770 and S. 3875 and urged colleagues to do the same, arguing the disclaimer/content regulation approach was premature (corroborated by The Hill: "McConnell opposes bill to ban use of deceptive AI to influence elections"). Author attribution correct (McConnell was Senate Republican leader at the time of the 2024 remarks). Vote alignment correct: statement "Prohibiting deceptive AI-generated media of federal election candidates," vote "against," matching his stated opposition. Year note: 2024 quote; this is the canonical primary-source statement of his position on these specific bills, so it remains the most relevant. Verified on confirmation of the quote and correct attribution/vote; the official source page blocks automated fetching.
