A Resolution urging the United States Congress to suspend any and all efforts to pass Federal legislation that would impose a moratorium on state-level artificial intelligence regulation; recognizing the potential benefits along with the risks of misuse and systemic harm of artificial intelligence; acknowledging the importance of state regulation of such technologies; and reaffirming the Pennsylvania General Assembly's sovereign authority to legislate for the protection of Pennsylvanians.

This Pennsylvania House Resolution urges the U.S. Congress to pause efforts to pass federal laws that would block states from regulating artificial intelligence. The bill highlights both the economic benefits and potential risks of AI, noting that Pennsylvania has already enacted state-level protections for issues like deepfakes and AI-generated harmful content. It asserts the state's authority to create its own AI regulations and asks federal officials to stop threatening legal action against state AI laws or withholding funding from states that pass such regulations. The resolution directs Pennsylvania's congressional delegation to advocate for a regulatory approach that respects state authority while protecting public welfare.
