Big AI Is Trying to Buy Congress. Stop Them.

Big AI has a message for every lawmaker in America: regulate us, and we’ll come for your seat.

Alex Bores, a congressional candidate in New York's 12th congressional district, helped pass one of the strongest AI safety laws in the country. Now, Big Tech-backed super PAC Leading the Future and its allies have made him an example by spending nearly $10 million against him.

The primary is tomorrow, and the world needs to know exactly what happened: Big AI tried to buy an election — and unless we expose them now, they’ll be ready to do it again.

Tell Big AI companies and their billionaire backers to stop trying to buy our elections. Add your name to show we won’t give up the fight to regulate AI and keep our families and future safe.

These companies have already built a $125 million political machine to punish candidates who support AI regulation, and they're not holding back.

Big AI is racing to control our jobs, elections, privacy, public safety, and civil rights — then trying to buy candidates who will let them do it with fewer rules and weaker oversight.

That is the hypocrisy at the heart of this fight. These companies want us to trust them with some of the most powerful technology ever built, while their allies fund a political machine designed to crush AI regulation.

If Big AI succeeds, every lawmaker will get the warning: protect the public, and billionaires will make you pay.

We cannot let AI billionaires buy Congress before Congress can regulate them.

Add your name now and demand that Big AI’s anti-regulation backers stop funding attacks on candidates who support safety, transparency, and accountability.

The petition to OpenAI President Greg Brockman, Andreessen Horowitz, Perplexity AI, Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale, and Leading the Future’s anti-regulation backers reads:

“Stop trying to buy elections to block AI regulation. Disclose all AI-related political spending, stop funding attacks on candidates who support AI safeguards, and pledge not to punish lawmakers for fighting to protect our safety, privacy, elections, jobs, and civil rights.”
