Representative Foushee's AI Workforce Impact Study Act of 2026 is an important step toward understanding how AI is reshaping work and America's economy.

The Future of Life Institute commends this clear-eyed, empirical approach and encourages Congress to build on it as a foundation for responsible AI governance.
