Formally introduce and pursue the AI AGENT Act to create a federal framework for secure consumer AI agents that protects consumer choice, privacy, security, market fairness, and fair access to large online platforms.

This discussion draft is a major step toward building a clear federal framework that promotes innovation, protects consumers, and ensures the United States continues to lead the world in emerging technology. I am releasing this draft to hear from stakeholders, experts, and the public so we can strengthen the legislation before it is formally introduced.

Warner committed to strengthening and formally introducing AI AGENT Act legislation establishing a federal framework for consumer AI agents with privacy, security, competition, and consumer-choice protections.

Warner released a discussion draft of the AI AGENT Act and said he was seeking stakeholder, expert, and public feedback before formal introduction.

Within the June 9-July 8 lookback window, Warner took a concrete pursuit step by releasing an official discussion draft for the AI AGENT Act. The same release explicitly indicates the measure had not yet been formally introduced, so the commitment is partially, not fully, delivered.

The draft is captioned as a discussion draft for the 119th Congress and names the measure the Artificial Intelligence Access, Gatekeeper Exchange, and Nondiscriminatory Transfer Act of 2026.

The draft text shows Warner prepared bill language for the AI AGENT Act, including provisions on large online platform access, custodial user agents, FTC registration, privacy and security duties, and nondiscrimination. It is still marked as a draft with placeholder bill numbering, supporting partial delivery rather than formal introduction.

The one-pager says the AI AGENT Act would let agents securely access online platforms, protect user privacy and data, and create an FTC registry of trusted agents.

The official summary aligns closely with the promise's substance: consumer choice, privacy, security, fair access to large online platforms, and market competition. It supports a partial status because it documents policy development and public rollout, not enacted or formally introduced legislation.

The section-by-section describes FTC rules, NIST standards work, large online platform access duties, user-agent loyalty duties, and fair, reasonable, nondiscriminatory access terms.

The section-by-section substantiates that Warner's draft contains a federal framework addressing the promised areas, including platform access, privacy and security, competition, enforcement, and technical standards. It supports partial delivery because it is labeled draft material.

Warner urged Treasury to convene stakeholders and develop clarity around AI agents in financial services, including consumer protection, fiduciary-like duties, and security risks.

Just before the lookback window, Warner took a related concrete oversight step on agentic AI rules. This reinforces effort toward a federal framework, but it does not itself introduce the AI AGENT Act.
