Our most advanced AI technologies must be kept out of the hands of adversaries like Communist China. Congress should ensure that America keeps our edge in the AI race.

Checked year (2026, current), author attribution, vote alignment, and source. The source_url (banks.senate.gov press release for the AI OVERWATCH Act) returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but a web search confirmed the verbatim quote "Our most advanced AI technologies must be kept out of the hands of adversaries like Communist China" is attributed to Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) in this press release; Cotton is a cosponsor of the Act, so being quoted on the lead sponsor's (Sen. Banks) page is expected and the URL is a legitimate primary source. Author bio (U.S. Senator from Arkansas, Republican, Intelligence/Armed Services) matches. Vote "for" the statement about giving Congress power to block AI chip exports to adversaries correctly aligns with Cotton's stated position favoring keeping advanced AI out of China's hands. Quote is accurate, relevant, and on-point.
