Artificial intelligence has become a key resource in our everyday lives and is now an essential tool across healthcare, education, transportation, public safety, elections, and government services. When managed responsibly and guided by principles, AI can empower individuals, expand opportunities, and strengthen America’s economic leadership while respecting civil liberties and consumer choice. Some regulations risk stifling innovation, creating legal uncertainty, and limiting advancements that improve lives and drive competition.

With the rapid advancement of AI, it is imperative that lawmakers carefully weigh the costs and benefits to accurately assess policies. Overly broad AI regulations risk being disproportionate to the harms they intend to address. States have already enacted AI policies that may result in unintended consequences. Public understanding remains essential for responsible AI adoption.
