The U.S. House of Representatives plans to adjourn in the coming days until after the November midterm elections, narrowing the window for passing any form of AI regulation bill. This follows warnings from leaders of top AI companies such as Anthropic, OpenAI, and xAI, who called for a slowdown in AI development and increased regulation. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro urged Congress to act immediately, and House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries stated that Democrats would discuss AI guardrails on Tuesday and support a slowdown in development to protect the American people. However, House Speaker Mike Johnson opposed rushing legislation before the recess, arguing that it could cause the U.S. to lose the AI competition to China, and called for industry self-regulation and an AI summit. Donald Trump also expressed concerns about slowing down or regulating AI development, emphasizing the U.S.'s leading position in AI.
