On Dec. 11, 2025, President Trump signed an executive order titled “Ensuring a National Policy Framework for Artificial Intelligence” that seeks to establish federal supremacy over state AI regulation. The order states that the Administration is concerned that some state-level regulation of AI may be overly burdensome, ideologically biased, or counterproductive to U.S. AI leadership and innovation. The order directs multiple federal agencies to take coordinated action to challenge and preempt state AI laws.
