Trump Administration Releases National AI Policy Framework

The White House released "A National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence" on March 20, 2026, outlining legislative recommendations for a unified federal AI policy. Key objectives:

• American AI dominance through six core pillars
• Removing regulatory barriers to speed AI deployment
• Workforce development in an AI-driven economy
• Child safety protections (supporting state laws banning AI-generated CSAM)
• Consumer and security protections against AI-enabled scams
• Federal preemption of state AI laws (overriding Utah HB 286, NY RAISE Act, CA Transparency in Frontier AI Act)

The framework explicitly calls for Congress to act quickly to avoid a patchwork of state regulations.
