State attorneys general from both parties are telling Congress to keep AI moratorium language out of the defense spending bill. They dropped a letter warning that federal preemption could stop states from dealing with AI risks like scams and chatbots messing with kids.

House Republicans might try slipping a ban on state AI rules into the National Defense Authorization Act after the Senate already shot down a similar ten-year freeze. Trump posted about needing one federal standard instead of letting states regulate, and a draft executive order floating around would set up a task force to sue states over their AI laws.

The pushback has backing from over 270 state legislators. Twenty states have already passed comprehensive data privacy laws, and California enacted its Transparency in Frontier Artificial Intelligence Act, requiring safety measures from developers. Americans for Responsible Innovation said the preemption idea would face massive opposition across party lines.
