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 (Mar 22, 2026)

The official Future of Life Institute page dated March 22, 2026 explicitly says that Michael Kleinman "issued the following statement" and the page contains the exact opening sentence and the exact later sentence after omitted intervening text, so this is a real verbatim-with-ellipsis excerpt present at the supplied URL and correctly attributed to Kleinman. The stored date and source URL also match the page. Although the page’s CMS byline is Taylor Jones, the quoted statement itself is clearly attributed in the body to Michael Kleinman.

The source URL does contain a statement explicitly attributed to Michael Kleinman on March 22, 2026, but the submitted quote is not verbatim. In the source, several sentences appear between the first sentence and "Any legislative framework that includes federal preemption without meaningful guardrails isn’t serious about protecting Americans." Because those omissions are not marked with an ellipsis/brackets, the submitted version is materially altered rather than an exact quote.

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.
