🇺🇸 [18 March 2026] Blackburn releases discussion draft of TRUMP AMERICA AI Act: Senator Marsha Blackburn has released a discussion draft of the TRUMP AMERICA AI Act, aiming to establish a unified federal framework for AI regulation. This proposed legislation seeks to protect children, creators, conservatives, and communities from potential AI-related harms while promoting US leadership in AI innovation. Key provisions include imposing a duty of care on AI developers to prevent foreseeable user harm, sunsetting Section 230 protections, mandating safeguards for minors on online platforms, and holding AI system developers accountable for damages caused by their systems. The act also incorporates elements from previously introduced bipartisan bills, such as the Kids Online Safety Act and the NO FAKES Act, to enhance protections for children and creators.
