Senators Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) and Mark Warner (D-Va.) have introduced new legislation aimed at increasing transparency around how artificial intelligence is reshaping the U.S. workforce. The proposal, known as the AI-Related Jobs Impact Clarity Act, would compel large companies and federal agencies to report AI-related job changes to the Labor Department on a quarterly basis. The bipartisan push signals broad concern about AI's effect on employment trends.
"This bipartisan legislation will finally give us a clear picture of AI's impact on the workforce - what jobs are being eliminated, which workers are being retrained, and where new opportunities are emerging," Warner said. "Armed with this information, we can make sure AI drives opportunity instead of leaving workers behind."
