With a vote on the Reconciliation Tax Bill looming in the Senate, state lawmakers across the U.S. are mobilizing against a proposed 10-year ban on state AI regulations. They argue that this moratorium would stifle dialogue and policy development regarding AI, hindering states' abilities to address localized needs. The opposition, which includes 260 lawmakers from all 50 states, emphasizes the need for state input in AI governance, urging Congress to reconsider the sweeping ban as it poses a threat to democracy and public welfare.
The proposed 10-year freeze of state and local regulation of AI and automated decision systems would cut short democratic discussion of AI policy in the states.
Lawmakers from every state in the country are sending a clear message that the proposed ban on state AI laws would freeze a whole range of common-sense laws that voters depend on.
