WHAT THEY ARE SAYING: Blackburn Announces Growing Momentum for TRUMP AMERICA AI Act
April 22, 2026
Today, U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) announced growing support for the discussion draft she released last month of her TRUMP AMERICA AI Act from key conservative leaders and advocates for the creative community, protecting kids online, and responsible AI innovation. This legislative proposal would address the six key objectives outlined in President Trump’s national AI framework to protect children, creators, and communities and prevent censorship.
“President Trump’s AI framework rightfully calls on Congress to create one rulebook for AI that protects children, safeguards American communities, supports creators, prevents censorship, enables innovation, and develops an AI-ready workforce,” said Senator Blackburn. “Now, it’s Congress’ turn to develop the White House framework into legislation that can pass both the House and Senate so that we can codify President Trump’s agenda, protect Americans, and unleash AI innovation. The TRUMP AMERICA AI Act would accomplish the goals President Trump outlined in his framework, and we are thrilled to have the support of a broad swath of leaders, advocates, and industry experts who want to see Congress empower innovators and establish overdue AI guardrails.”
