State AI Laws to Be Challenged Under Forthcoming Trump Order

President Donald Trump is preparing to sign an executive order that would allow the Department of Justice to sue states over artificial intelligence regulations it deems unconstitutional, according to a draft making the rounds on K Street, Capitol Hill, and seen by Bloomberg Government.

The draft order directs the attorney general to establish a task force that would challenge state AI laws should they “unconstitutionally regulate interstate commerce, are preempted by existing Federal regulations, or are otherwise unlawful.”
