Deepfakes and AI-generated audio and visual content poses major risks to consumers, our elections, and public trust. Clear labeling and transparency of this content must be required so Americans can distinguish what images, audio, and videos are artificially generated,AI Verified source (Apr 24, 2026)

The quote clearly supports requiring labeling/transparency for AI-generated audio and visual content, explicitly citing risks to elections. That broader mandate implies support for requiring disclosure of AI-generated political advertising, which is a subset of such content.

The quote clearly supports requiring disclosure: it says "clear labeling and transparency of this content must be required," referring to AI-generated audio and visual content and citing risks to "our elections."

Verified on the official House press release dated 2026-04-24: the quoted sentence appears verbatim on that page and is immediately attributed with “said Congresswoman Valerie Foushee,” confirming the author, date, source URL, and stored text are correct.

Disputed
The source page dated April 24, 2026 shows that Rep. Valerie Foushee said the first sentence about clear labeling and transparency, but the second sentence — “This is a matter of personal safety, national security, and maintaining a properly informed electorate.” — appears later in the same press release and is attributed to Dr. Cynthia Rudin, not Foushee. So the submitted text is a misattributed composite, not a verbatim Foushee quote.

Quote attributed to Rep. Valerie Foushee (2026). The foushee.house.gov source_url returned HTTP 403 to automated fetching, but web search confirmed the press release exists at that exact URL and corroborated the quote verbatim: "Clear labeling and transparency of this content must be required so Americans can distinguish what images, audio, and videos are artificially generated. This is a matter of personal safety, national security, and maintaining a properly informed electorate." Year confirmed: she (with Beyer and Moylan) reintroduced the Protecting Consumers from Deceptive AI Act on April 24, 2026 (HR8479, 119th Congress), so 2026 is correct. Author attribution confirmed. Vote alignment correct: the quote demands mandatory disclosure/labeling of AI-generated content and explicitly invokes maintaining a "properly informed electorate," supporting the statement "Mandate disclosure of AI-generated political advertising" — matching the "for" vote. (The bill covers AI-generated audio/visual content broadly, which encompasses political advertising.)
