I would go farther. I think we ought to enact my legislation that I have with Senator [Richard] Blumenthal that would make that sort of reporting and monitoring mandatory.

AI Unverifiable
Year 2026 is current. The quote attributes to Sen. Josh Hawley a statement that he would "go farther" and enact his legislation with Sen. Blumenthal making AI reporting/monitoring mandatory. The vote "for" on statement 401 (Mandate reporting of AI training runs above 10²⁶ FLOPs) aligns correctly with the quote's pro-mandatory-reporting stance. Independent web search corroborates that Hawley and Blumenthal authored the bipartisan AI Risk Evaluation Act, which would make reporting/oversight of advanced AI systems mandatory — consistent with the quote. However, the source_url (rollcall.com) returns HTTP 403 Forbidden and blocks WebFetch, so I could not directly confirm the exact quote text appears on the page. Marking ai_unverifiable per protocol for blocked sources.
