As one immediate step, Vasquez is backing H.R. 9925, the bipartisan Frontier Risk Oversight, National Transparency, Independent Evaluation, and Reporting (FRONTIER) Act . The FRONTIER Act would create a national, risk-based framework to oversee the most advanced AI systems, with stronger requirements for the largest developers. It would require safety plans, independent audits, incident reporting, and ongoing assessments of catastrophic risks, including risks involving 50 or more deaths or serious injuries or at least $1 billion in property damage.
Support the bipartisan FRONTIER Act to create a national risk-based framework for oversight of advanced artificial intelligence systems.
