Assessments

delivered same_term

The promise was to continue advocating for AI safeguards, not necessarily to enact a final statutory outcome. During the same federal House term, Foushee sponsored or co-led multiple AI-safeguard bills, including measures on AI companion chatbots for minors and generative-AI disclosure/transparency standards. Those actions directly match the promised advocacy for protecting communities from AI-related harms and risks, so the advocacy commitment is fulfilled even though the underlying bills are not shown as enacted.
