Congress drops a 269-page AI bill that could override state laws
The proposed “Great American AI Act” would preempt state AI rules for three years and impose safety-incident reporting and disclosure requirements on companies with $500M+ in revenue, plus a new federal AI standards center. It sets up a direct clash with laws like Colorado’s, which takes effect June 30.
Why it matters: A single federal framework could reshape AI rules nationwide — and decide whether states keep any power to regulate.
