Senate Removes Tax Bill Provision Limiting State AI Regulation
Save
The Senate killed a controversial effort to prevent US states from regulating artificial intelligence, delivering a win for critics of the biggest tech companies after a compromise proposal collapsed.
Senators voted 99-1 early Tuesday to strip the language out of President Donald Trump's signature tax legislation during a marathon session that began Monday and continued through the night. The overwhelming opposition came despite widespread support for the pause on state AI legislation from Trump administration officials and GOP allies in Silicon Valley.

REUTERS Tan hopes to win Trump's approval by showing his commitment to the US and guaranteeing the importance of keeping Intel's manufacturing capabilities as a national security issue, the report added.

Tan said he shared the president's commitment to advancing US national and economic security. Trump's intervention marked a rare instance of a US president publicly calling for a CEO's ouster and sparked debate among investors.
