Tell Your Senators ✍️
We Can’t Wait 10 Years for AI Safety. Right now, Congress is quietly pushing a dangerous plan that would block states from protecting families from AI harms until 2035.
That means 10 years where states can’t stop:
- AI-generated sexual content
- Dangerous AI “companions”
- AI tools collecting the personal data of users and families
- Biased algorithms that block students and job seekers from getting a fair shot
The House has already passed it. The Senate is considering it now. We still have time to stop it – but we can’t do it without your voice. Contact your senators today. Tell them to protect families, not tech companies.
Please add your name! #Congress is pushing legislation to block states from setting up hashtag#AI safeguards for a full decade. The House passed it. The Senate can stop it – but only if they hear from you. Add your name to this petition: Stop the 10-Year AI Free Pass!
