Floor preemption sets minimum standards that lower levels of government must follow while allowing them to adopt additional regulations. This approach aims to promote consistency while maintaining local flexibility. For AI, this could look like Congress or states requiring baseline safety testing, transparency measures, and risk assessments for AI systems, while still allowing states or localities to implement consumer protections, privacy requirements, or liability standards tailored to their communities.
