CFA Joins Letter Calling on Congress to Reject the Great American Artificial Intelligence Act

CFA TC

The Consumer Federation of America, together with over 130 organizations, signed-on to the following letter, calling on Congress to oppose the Great American Artificial Intelligence Act. 

The letter states: "We are not against a national approach to AI, or against the technology. History is clear on this: protecting people from a new technology’s harms is what earns the public trust that lets the technology succeed. Set a strong federal floor, and let the states build on it. Do not set a ceiling that ties their hands through the most consequential years this technology will ever have. Until Congress is ready to offer far stronger protections than the state laws on each area it would erase, it has no business taking those laws away."
