Congress has failed to regulate AI for years – and there’s little sign that’s changing
Lawmakers have introduced multiple AI bills, but most have stalled in committees as GOP leaders favor a light-touch approach, sources said.
- The U.S. House left Washington on Wednesday without passing major AI safety legislation, leaving numerous bipartisan proposals stalled despite growing pressure from lawmakers and industry leaders.
- President Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson argue that slowing AI development benefits China, with Trump calling potential threats a "hoax" and opposing regulation.
- Representative Chip Roy of Texas opposes new regulations, stating "I don't want to regulate anything," yet supports AI CEOs testifying before Congress about safety concerns.
- Democratic Representative Ted Lieu countered that Congress can pass common-sense regulations, arguing "there's all sorts of regulations that are common sense that Congress can pass and should pass."
- While the Senate will remain in session for two more weeks, bipartisan groups unsuccessfully urged leadership to keep the House in session to negotiate AI reforms before the pre-election recess.
