Trump wants a deadlocked Congress to move on AI. Frustrated states say they already have
""We want to create an environment where innovators have certainty about the way that they can develop their products and it's something only congress can provide," Michael Kratsios stated, emphasizing the need for a national framework to avoid a patchwork of state laws."
""They basically mentioned that they're opposed to the bill and viewed the bill as unfixable and was against the administration's AI agenda," said State Rep. Doug Fiefia, reflecting on the White House's intervention in state legislation."
States are passing laws to regulate artificial intelligence, focusing on child safety, transparency, and whistleblower protections. However, the White House, including President Trump and advisor David Sacks, argues that these state laws hinder innovation. They advocate for a single national framework to avoid a fragmented approach. The White House has intervened in state legislation, as seen with a proposed bill in Utah that aimed for greater transparency from tech companies, which was halted due to opposition from the administration.
