Rep. Trahan drafts solo version of Frontier Act with far less state-law preemption
geomblog · x · 2026-11-10
Per a Punchbowl scoop by Ben Brody, Rep. Lori Trahan is working solo on a much less preemptive version of the Frontier Act, which would require outside safety evaluations of the most advanced AI models. Dialing back preemption of state laws is seen as key to keeping the bill relevant as more Democratic AI bills land, reducing the need to compromise with Rep. Jay Obernolte.
