Reps. Lori Trahan (D) and Jay Obernolte (R) released draft legislation preempting state laws "targeting artificial intelligence model development," including pre-release testing mandates, while still letting states regulate how AI is used. Source: Reuters Majority Leader Steve Scalise is separately shopping a preemption provision for the 2026 NDAA. This revives the state-moratorium fight the Senate stripped 99-1 from an earlier budget bill, and it faces bipartisan opposition, including Sen. Marsha Blackburn over preemption of state child-safety protections. Set this next to the Anthropic pause-button argument and you've got the whole governance fight in miniature: one side wants a coordinated brake, the other wants the states' hands off the wheel.
