Comment by Michael Kleinman
Head of U.S. Policy at the Future of Life Institute; former AI policy staff at Meta and Amnesty International USA
Big Tech and their allies in the administration are desperate to stop states from regulating AI, even as it ravages families, eliminates jobs, and threatens to replace humans wholesale. Any legislative framework that includes federal preemption without meaningful guardrails isn't serious about protecting Americans.AI Verified source (2026)

Verified quote attributed to Michael Kleinman, Head of US Policy at the Future of Life Institute. The FLI statement URL returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but web search confirmed the verbatim text: "Big Tech and their allies in the administration are desperate to stop states from regulating AI, even as it ravages families, eliminates jobs, and threatens to replace humans wholesale," delivered in response to White House AI legislative recommendations (2026). Year (2026) is current. Author attribution confirmed — Kleinman is FLI's Head of US Policy. Source URL is FLI's own statement page, the primary source. Vote alignment: the statement is "States should retain the right to set stricter AI safety standards than the federal government"; Kleinman explicitly opposes federal preemption that would stop states from regulating AI, so a "for" vote correctly captures his position.
