Tell Congress: Defend States’ Power to Regulate AI

Trump is plotting an executive order to crush state authority over artificial intelligence — giving Washington and his corporate allies total control of the technology shaping our future.

Trump’s draft plan would ban state AI rules and cut off federal funds to states that refuse to obey. California, New York, and Illinois — states leading on privacy and fairness — are already in his sights.

Sources claim the order is “on pause,” but that’s a test, not a retreat. Trump is watching to see if we fight back. If we don’t, he’ll move ahead — silencing states that protect people from AI bias, deepfakes, and surveillance. That’s why we must act now.

Tell Congress: “Defend states’ power to regulate AI. Stop Trump’s planned executive order before it hands our digital future to billionaires and bureaucrats.”

For decades, states have led where Washington failed — curbing discrimination, protecting data, and setting the ethical guardrails corporations won’t. Trump’s plan would wipe it all away to please tech billionaires and defense contractors.

Civil liberties groups like the Electronic Frontier Foundation warn his proposal is “deeply misguided” and would unleash mass surveillance and corporate abuse.

Congress must act now. Lawmakers can block any funding for Trump’s order and pass legislation guaranteeing that states keep the power to protect their people from reckless AI.

Add your name to demand Congress protect our right to rein in Big Tech excesses and AI threats.

The petition to Congress reads: “Defend states’ power to regulate AI. Stop Trump’s planned executive order before it hands our digital future to billionaires and bureaucrats.”
