There is one thing we should be clear-eyed about right now: AI developers aren’t above the laws we have currently on the books. They can and should be prosecuted and held liable if they break the law and their products harm us.

These AI companies cannot be trusted to regulate themselves. Don’t let the fox guard the henhouse.
$2.8B dollars could go a long way to helping people here at home instead of furthering Israel’s atrocities.
Not to mention Netanyahu routinely blocks the United States from seeking justice for our own citizens killed by Israeli settlers in the West Bank. We’ll work to block this weapons sale, but the Administration will like use emergency authority to bypass accountability in Congress.
The United States has no business sending Netanyahu billions of dollars’ worth of bombs after his record of indiscriminate violence against Palestinian civilians, including children.
The President and his party want to let Big Tech write their own rules. While he’s blocked any effort to rein in AI in Congress, that doesn’t mean there aren’t laws on the books we can use to protect people right now.
These big AI companies should be held civilly and/or criminally liable and prosecuted when their models hurt people. They don’t get a free pass just because they’ve now decided to admit to the dangers of what they’ve created.
We certainly need real crypto regulations that are much stronger than the CLARITY Act. But there seem to be bigger fish to fry right now!
the FIRST thing Republicans made us work on is a crypto bill that benefits the industry that spent tens of millions of dollars bankrolling them in the last election.
We just spent a month outside of the DC bubble and instead of coming back to address any of the concerns we heard back home (gas prices, Iran, data centers)
Trump’s EPA will let power plants emit more lead, mercury and other chemicals into the air to be breathed in by you and your kids because he’ll do just about anything to help out the fossil fuel companies that funded his campaign
Fossil fuel donors run the Republican Party. Now they also run the EPA.
Just another chilling reminder of just how fundamentally broken ICE is.
If it looks like a cage and acts as a cage… it’s a cage. Calling these “calming areas” at Alligator Alcatraz is some dystopian doublespeak.
Apple Tree, thanks for having me today and for all you do to provide quality, accessible, and affordable dental care to Minnesotans in rural communities.
Minnesotans just want to see a dentist. They shouldn’t have to take hours out of their day to find one that accepts their insurance.
But after that many patients over the course of 30 years, the clinic needed upgrades and more space to keep up with that demand. So, we secured $3.7 million of federal funding for the clinic upgrades and expansion.
Apple Tree Dental in Hawley, Minnesota has provided more than 353,000 dental visits to more than 35,000 patients across the Northland. They’ve often been the only provider in the area willing to see patients on Medicaid.
