Congress cannot afford to miss the moment on AI regulation. While reasonable people may disagree on how precisely to regulate this technology, we are beyond denying that action is required.

UPDATE: Even the contractor that renovated the Reflecting Pool has confirmed what the American people knew all along: the damage to the pool was caused by errors in their repair process, not by vandalism.
Contractor Blames Its Own Repairs, Not Vandals, for Reflecting Pool Failure

Like you, I’m still waiting on my DOGE check… and that’s after Elon Musk took a sledgehammer to the federal workforce and cut so many scientists and health programs that we can’t even eat lettuce now.

DOGE may not be around anymore, but our neighbors are still feeling the effects. This year, we’ve already heard from hundreds of neighbors about delayed tax refunds, problems with small business tax credits, and more because DOGE cut nearly 30% of the IRS workforce.
