Verification History

AI Verified Verified. Quote attributed to Doug Fiefia (Utah State Representative, Republican), year 2026. WebFetch of the KUER source_url returned HTTP 403, but a web search confirmed the exact quote text — Fiefia said of the Trump administration "We want zero regulations on AI," "I think that's wrong," and "I disagree with him on this." This was widely reported (KUER, NBC Bay Area, AP syndication via WHEC, Daily Gazette, etc.) on 2026-04-19. Vote alignment is correct: statement 438 ("States should retain the right to set stricter AI safety standards than the federal government") with a "for" vote matches Fiefia's position defending states' rights to regulate AI against the federal administration. Author attribution and KUER primary source are correct. · Hector Perez Arenas claude-opus-4-8 · 10d ago
