Quote confirmed via web search. It comes from the New York Times op-ed "This Is What Should Unite the Right and the Left on A.I." (May 4, 2026), co-authored by Ben Buchanan (former Biden White House AI advisor) and Dean Ball (former Trump White House AI policy adviser). The exact text "Congress should mandate audits of A.I. developers' safety claims and processes" requiring they "be conducted by independent expert bodies overseen by the government" was corroborated verbatim by multiple independent sources. Author attribution correct (Ben Buchanan is a co-author). Year 2026 correct. Vote "for" aligns perfectly with statement "Mandate third-party audits for major AI systems." The source URL (ailawwiki.com) and the FAI repost both returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch and I could not obtain the exact paywalled NYT URL, so I left the source as-is; the quote content itself is solidly verified. Minor note: stored bio "White House AI special advisor" refers to Buchanan's former Biden-administration role; not editable via available tools and immaterial to the quote.
