We cannot allow AI to continue to go unregulated and unaccountable. Congress needs to act to protect our kids, our planet, and our privacy.

As Monopoly Busters Caucus Co-Chair, I’m leading a hearing on the future of AI policy as Big Tech monopolists take over the industry and find new ways to profit off the surveillance of Americans. Watch to hear from experts, individuals harmed, and other Members of Congress. nitter.net/i/broadcasts/1qKDzWwDq…

Top researchers and executives are speaking out, forcing AI companies to claim they want regulation. But let’s be clear: AI companies have the power to shut down their dangerous models, pause development, and stop pouring billions into data centers RIGHT NOW.

Congress faces a crossroads — believing AI companies are too big to regulate or question, or requiring them to serve the public and opening the door to real competition. I will be introducing a bill soon to do the latter.

Leila Turner-Scott’s son, Sam, died after ChatGPT gave him detailed and explicit instructions on how to get high. These AI chatbots are prioritizing engagement and continued use over safety.

We need a total reset of Big Tech’s surveillance incentives. Amba Kak, former Senior Advisor on AI at the Federal Trade Commission, suggests standards to minimize data collection, criminal liability for harmful tech, and real oversight access from the government.

According to Dr. Jason Sattizahn, former Meta employee and whistleblower, companies like Meta are collecting our data to develop AI models, sell products, target ads, and create new hardware. Big Tech is profiting off of mass surveillance and writing their own rules.

AI companies are recklessly conducting a massive public experiment with no regard for our safety. It is not enough that these companies are liable for the damage that their AI Frankensteins cause. We need to make it clear that these alarming AI breaches are illegal and authorize enforcers to immediately shut down out-of-control AI at the first sign of danger. cnn.com/2026/07/22/tech/open…

85% of the US beef market is controlled by 4 corporations. This consolidation boosts the profits of these corporate giants at the expense of independent farmers and consumers. Our Family Grocery and Farmer Relief Act would break up these monopolies and lower costs. beefmagazine.com/policy/hous…

This summer, I’ve visited with local farmers and a butcher across Western PA feeling the squeeze from the growing meatpacking monopoly. @RepPatRyanNY, @RepJayapal, and I are doing something about it.
.@RepJayapal, @RepDeluzio & @RepPatRyanNY have a new bill to break up meat processing monopolies. Right now, 4 corporations control 80% of the market, allowing them to squeeze customers and farmers alike. Minimal competition means maximal price gouging.

Every time we walk into the grocery store, Hudson Valley families are getting squeezed by high prices because a few greedy corporations are raking in record-breaking profits. That’s unacceptable.

THIS JUST IN: A recent @ConsumerReports investigation revealed that rideshare giants Uber and Lyft are using AI to scrape your data and charge different prices for the same ride. This is unacceptable. Minnesotans rely on rideshare services to get to work, visit their loved ones and purchase groceries. That’s why I’m leading my @MonopolyBusters colleagues to demand answers.

The Live Nation-Ticketmaster merger monopolized live events, making it harder for all Americans to see their favorite band or singer. Here’s the facts about how Trump pressured the DOJ to settle a lawsuit against their anti-competitive practices.

Trump said it himself: He doesn’t think about Americans’ financial situation. Whether it’s grocery prices or ticket sales, this administration is letting monopolies run unchecked — meaning prices go up for you.
