Comment by Tanya L. Goldman

Human avatar
Labor policy expert and workers' rights advocate; testified before the U.S. House Committee on Education and Workforce in 2026.
There have been efforts, however, to prevent states from enacting new protections and to nullify existing state safeguards—leaving workers vulnerable when employers deploy discriminatory and exploitative AI systems in the workplace. Any federal legislation should be a floor, not a ceiling.
