Today I stand with bipartisan coalition of AGs in urging Congress take action to protect Americans from catastrophic AI threats. California has been a leader in the responsible regulation of technology, and our continued leadership is critical. But federal action is also urgently needed.

The Trump Administration is seeking to rewrite more than 100 years of law with its cruel new definition of who is considered a “public charge.”   Giving individual immigration officers the power to punish families for lawfully accessing public benefits is wrong and it’s against the law.    No family should have to choose between accessing healthcare and nutrition assistance today — or protecting their pathway to a green card tomorrow. oag.ca.gov/news/press-releas…
