U.S. representative from Indiana
Our country faces rapidly evolving national security threats, and Congress must be poised to properly address them and close the security gaps. The bills we passed today are critical to addressing the security challenges with AI, providing Congress with oversight over the sale of advanced AI chips to our adversaries, and supercharging American AI leadership to beat China.
