Ranking Member Lofgren Applauds Passage of Ten AI Bills, Commits to Fighting for Democratic AI Priorities

WASHINGTON, DC - Today, the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology passed ten AI bills(link is external) through Committee. The bills are listed below.

"I'm pleased that we were able to move ten AI bills through the Committee today," said Ranking Member Zoe Lofgren (D-CA). "These bills are focused on the challenges and opportunities presented by the widespread adoption of AI technology. The bills passed today thoughtfully recognized and address the nuance and complexity around these issues. I'm thankful to my colleagues, both Democratic and Republican, who worked so hard to get these bills to this finish line."

"We should be proud of this win today, and we are, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention that the process by which we got here strayed from the usual good faith efforts and discussions this Committee has so long been known for. We are a productive Committee and have continued to deliver for our constituents despite these tumultuous times. Several Democratic priorities were struck down by Republicans or completely barred from consideration during our markup, otherwise risking a bill getting thrown out altogether. It's troubling to imagine why Republicans would oppose these items, such as efforts to address concerns about youth exposure to AI, data centers, and the inclusion of community colleges in our AI future. Americans certainly are concerned about these issues. Democrats will continue to fight for a future that carefully assesses the risks of AI while also capitalizing on the opportunities it brings. I hope the House takes up these bills before the end of the Congress, and I look forward to them landing on the president's desk."
