The A.I. Moratorium War Is Just Beginning…
Yes, the state regulatory ban was suddenly stripped out of Trump’s signature
bill, but the A.I. industry and its army of lobbyists won’t let the hallmark
technology of our time be regulated without their perspective. Which is why
everyone is paying attention to a bill currently sitting on Governor Kathy
Hochul’s desk.
Ian Krietzberg
Last week, after a tumultuous few days, a provision in Trump’s sprawling,
900-page Big Beautiful Bill Act barring states from regulating A.I. for the
next five to 10 years was stripped out. The yanking of the so-called A.I.
moratorium was, to put it mildly, a shocking twist—not least because its
removal was supported by 99 senators. Adam Thierer, the think tank analyst
who first proposed a federal moratorium on state A.I. laws, called the
volte-face a “major turning point in U.S. technology policy.”
In the end, it wasn’t just the bill’s hardline language that scared off a
handful of Republican senators, namely Tennessee’s Marsha Blackburn. It was
also, according to several sources, the fact that there wasn’t a parallel
effort to propose a national A.I. policy. Negotiators reduced the
decade-long moratorium to a five-year pause, but even that was too much for
Blackburn. “The current language is not acceptable to those who need these
protections the most,” she said in a statement. “Until Congress passes
federally preemptive legislation like the Kids Online Safety Act and an
online privacy framework, we can’t block states from making laws that
protect their citizens.”
It’s obviously a disappointment for the industry’s boosters, like White
House A.I. czar David Sacks. For the past two years, tech companies and
lobbyists have waged a veritable crusade to convince policymakers that we
can’t afford a state-by-state A.I. regulatory regime, or else our
descendants will be learning Mandarin from Chinese L.L.M.s. In Meta’s public
policy proposal for the Trump administration’s pending A.I. Action Plan, the
company calls explicitly for a federal preemption of state laws, since a
“patchwork of state laws … will hamper American A.I. innovation.” OpenAI’s
proposal, Google’s proposal, Amazon’s proposal, and a16z’s proposal all make
similar arguments.
And yet, the public has remained pretty consistently skeptical: A 2023
YouGov poll found that 72 percent of Americans supported at least some form
of A.I. regulation; more recently, a 2025 Pew Research poll found that 58
percent of Americans were more concerned about too few A.I. regulations than
too many.
In my conversations surrounding the last-minute changes to the Big Beautiful
Bill, the prevailing sentiment was that the Senate had finally grasped the
scale of the problem. “I think there was this realization that we can have
both: We can continue to innovate, and we can have safety,” Camille Carlton,
the policy director at the Center for Humane Technology, told me. “And if
the federal government wants to move forward with some sort of preemption
regime, they need to step up and say, This is the law that we are going to
pass that will be tied to preemption, instead of having nothing in place.”
Dr. Hamid Ekbia, the director of Syracuse University’s Autonomous Systems
Policy Institute, told me that the reversal demonstrated that, even in
polarized times, “sanity can prevail—so that’s a good sign.”
But for how long can it prevail against this sort of dough? In the first
quarter of this year, Meta spent nearly $8 million on lobbying efforts—more
than in the first quarter of 2024, according to OpenSecrets; Alphabet spent
$3.8 million, also more than it spent in the first quarter of last year;
a16z spent $650,000, more than double its first-quarter spending last year;
and OpenAI, after spending $1.7 million in lobbying efforts in 2024, spent
$560,000 in the first quarter of this year alone. Of course, this doesn’t
count the millions in lobbying dollars spent this year by tech advocacy
groups that represent many of these companies, including TechNet and the
Consumer Technology Association. The former pushed for a “single national
policy” on A.I., while the latter urged congressional leaders to “preserve”
the moratorium.
In other words, the fight against state regulation is hardly over. Alix
Fraser, the vice president of advocacy at Issue One, a political reform
group, warned last week that “Big Tech will try to push back against this
victory. They will try to pad the pockets of every politician, and pull
every lever in their power to bring this 10-year ban back.” Meanwhile, Sen.
Ted Cruz and Rep. Brett Guthrie have expressed support for the idea of a
standalone A.I. moratorium bill.
Neither Meta, Amazon, OpenAI, IBM, nor Anthropic responded to requests for
comment regarding either the death of the moratorium or their respective
efforts to preserve it—although it’s worth noting that Anthropic C.E.O.
Dario Amodei has argued against a 10-year moratorium. In an emailed
statement, Microsoft director of public affairs Kaitlin Haskins told me that
“Microsoft did not support a full moratorium, but did lobby for a compromise
that preserved the rights of states to regulate certain areas, including
protecting consumers from the use of A.I. in fraud.” A Google spokesperson
pointed me to a May tweet in which it called the moratorium an “important
first step to both protect national security and ensure continued American
A.I. leadership.”
The New York Battle
Another view, offered by Gabriel Weil, a senior fellow at the Institute for
Law and A.I., is that the reversal aligns with a long-held tradition of
allowing state-level experimentation to filter into, and eventually inform,
federal law. “This is just a decision not to cut off that process,” he told
me. Indeed, much of the state-level A.I. legislation that we’ve seen so far
is relatively narrow: Tennessee’s ELVIS Act, for instance, simply updates
the state’s personal rights laws to protect artists from A.I.-generated
mimicry. And while a few states have aimed a little higher, some have gotten
singed in the process. Last year, California nearly enacted an infamous
piece of legislation called SB 1047, which aimed to prevent “catastrophic
harms” by regulating frontier models. It faced a crushing wave of lobbying
from the tech industry before Gov. Gavin Newsom decided not to sign it into
law.
Now, the front line has moved to New York. In June, State Senator Andrew
Gounardes and Assemblyman Alex Bores shepherded the Responsible A.I. Safety
and Education (RAISE) Act through the legislature, partly building on SB
1047 while addressing some of its main critiques. For starters, RAISE
applies only to companies that spend more than $100 million to train their
models, and requires transparency around safety, security, and
risk-evaluation reporting, in addition to incident reporting. It also
affords the New York attorney general the power to impose civil penalties of
up to $30 million for violations. The bill now sits on Kathy Hochul’s desk,
where Bores expects it to enter a chapter amendment process that remains
unique to New York.
The legislation would almost certainly impact the industry far beyond New
York. Bores told me his goal was to set a regulatory baseline for not just
the country, but also the world: “If you want access to the New York
market—which most businesses on Earth do—if you are a frontier model
developer, you will have to follow this,” he said, adding that it would
likely apply to Chinese developers, like DeepSeek, as well as U.S. giants,
regardless of where they’re headquartered.
Gounardes, however, was more circumspect about the bill and the broader
business climate. “I think, right now, the companies still following through
on the voluntary commitments—it’s laudable, we applaud that,” he told me. “I’m
concerned about a change in business incentives. You can very quickly see
the line shift from, We’re going to be a thoughtful, responsible, A.I.
corporate citizen, to, We have to win the race, no matter what the cost. And
it’s that second one I find most concerning—when you are chasing the dollar,
you can be blinded to everything else.”
Naturally, as the bill floats in purgatory, the same lobbying efforts that
fought against SB 1047 and for the moratorium have set their sights on
Albany. The Computer & Communications Industry Association, Chamber of
Progress, and American Innovators Network—a coalition of startups and major
venture capital firms, including a16z—are all staunchly opposed to the
legislation, and have urged Hochul to veto it, warning it might send A.I.
companies fleeing from New York. (Tech companies used similar arguments when
fighting 1047 last year.) Meanwhile, TechNYC, an advocacy group whose
members include Google, Meta, and IBM, has denounced the bill’s supposed
capacity to harm startups. (Bores and Gounardes, for their part, see its
guardrails as a key enabler of innovation.)
Anyway, according to polling by Beacon Research, 84 percent of New Yorkers
support the RAISE Act. “This is a very strong bill,” said Bores, who
emphasized the lengthy, complex industry feedback process that led to the
removal of an audit requirement, among other things. “It’s one that will
meaningfully improve our safety on frontier models, so I’m very proud of the
final product. But that doesn’t mean it’s 100 percent the bill I’d write if
I were king.”
Edition No. 1 is now officially in the books.
I’ll see you Thursday.
