The federal government hasn't done anything about this yet, but thank goodness, the states are stepping up. Utah has been a leader in the past, protecting kids against these predatory tech companies. Now I think it's time for Utah to be that leader again.AI Verified source (2026)

Verification History
AI Verified
Verified quote attributed to Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The Transparency Coalition URL returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but web search confirmed the verbatim text across multiple outlets (Deseret News, KSL, ABC4, The Wrap): Gordon-Levitt testified before a Utah House committee on Jan 27, 2026 in support of HB 286 (Utah AI Transparency Act), saying "the federal government hasn't done anything about this yet, but thank goodness, the states are stepping up," and "Utah has been a leader in the past, protecting kids against these predatory tech companies. Now I think it's time for Utah to be that leader again." Year (2026) is current. Author attribution confirmed. Vote alignment: the statement is "States should retain the right to set stricter AI safety standards than the federal government"; Gordon-Levitt explicitly praises states stepping up to regulate AI where the federal government has not, so a "for" vote matches his position.
