ICYMI: Conservatives, Little Tech, and Business Leaders Voice Support for Commerce Committee’s AI Provision
WASHINGTON, D.C. – In case you missed it, the Senate Commerce Committee’s AI provision in the budget reconciliation text, released by Chairman Ted Cruz (R-Texas), received widespread praise from conservative groups, business and policy leaders, and entrepreneurs in the tech industry. The provision, expected to be included in the Senate’s One, Big, Beautiful Bill (OBBB), helps the U.S. beat China in the AI race by spurring investment and encouraging some measure of certainty to developers, researchers, and small businesses that might otherwise be subjected to a fragmented regulatory landscape governed by inconsistent and conflicting state-level laws.
