Comment by Josh Hawley
U.S. Senator for Missouri
I'm encouraged that the framework carves out whole bunches of state laws, you know, particularly the children's safety laws. Those should be allowed to remain in place no matter what.AI Verified source (2026)

Nextgov’s March 26, 2026 article contains the submitted wording verbatim and explicitly attributes it to Sen. Josh Hawley in a paragraph introduced with “Hawley added ...,” so the quote is authentic and correctly attributed.

Verified via web search. Quote is from Senator Josh Hawley regarding the Trump administration's AI policy framework in March 2026. The Nextgov source URL returned 403 to WebFetch but multiple sources confirm the exact quote about being "encouraged that the framework carves out whole bunches of state laws, you know, particularly the children's safety laws." Vote "for" the statement "States should retain the right to set stricter AI safety standards than the federal government" aligns well - Hawley explicitly approves of preserving state laws (especially children's safety laws) against federal preemption.
