The sentence appears verbatim in the cited PDF, "Testimony of Dr. Rumman Chowdhury," dated January 15, 2026; the document identifies Chowdhury as the author, and the quoted line appears on page 1 at lines 49-52.

Year 2026 (current). Source PDF (nysenate.gov) returns HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but web search retrieved its content and confirmed the quote: Dr. Rumman Chowdhury's Jan 15, 2026 NY Senate testimony states people "must be able to speak candidly about risks without fear of retaliation or frivolous lawsuits," in the context of protecting whistleblowers and good-faith AI evaluators. Attribution is correct (Rumman Chowdhury, AI ethicist / Humane Intelligence CEO). The vote "for" on statement 388 ("Grant whistleblower protections to AI safety researchers") aligns directly with the quote. Positive corroboration obtained via web search.
