Fact Check: "The House-passed 'One Big Beautiful Bill' includes a provision that would ban states from enacting any AI regulations for 10 years."

What We Know

The claim that the House-passed "One Big Beautiful Bill" includes a provision to ban states from enacting AI regulations for 10 years is supported by several sources. According to a report by AP News, House Republicans included a provision in the bill that would indeed impose a 10-year moratorium on state-level regulations concerning artificial intelligence (AI). This provision aims to create a uniform regulatory environment across the country, preventing states from enacting their own laws regarding AI technologies during this period.

Further details can be found in the text of the bill itself, which outlines various provisions, including the aforementioned moratorium on state regulations related to AI (Congress.gov). This aligns with the objectives stated in the bill to foster innovation while minimizing regulatory fragmentation across states.

Analysis

The evidence supporting the claim comes from reliable news sources and the official text of the bill. The AP News article is a credible source, as it is a well-established news organization known for its journalistic integrity. The report provides specific details about the provision and its implications, making it a trustworthy reference.

Additionally, the Congress.gov document, which contains the official text of the bill, confirms the existence of the provision. This source is highly reliable as it is the official repository for U.S. legislative information.

However, there is a need for caution in interpreting the implications of this provision. While the bill does include a moratorium, the broader context of its potential effects on innovation, state autonomy, and the regulatory landscape surrounding AI is still being debated among lawmakers and experts. Reports from SHRM and Snopes also discuss the implications of the bill, highlighting varying opinions on whether such a ban is beneficial or detrimental to the development of AI technologies.

Conclusion

Needs Research. While the claim is substantiated by credible sources indicating that the "One Big Beautiful Bill" does include a provision to ban states from enacting AI regulations for 10 years, the broader implications of this provision require further examination. The potential impact on innovation, state rights, and the regulatory environment surrounding AI is complex and warrants additional investigation to fully understand the consequences of such a legislative move.

Fact Check: Paul Krugman Paul Krugman We’re All Rats Now Time to take a stand, again, against racism Paul Krugman Jun 30, 2025 Zohran Mamdani’s upset victory in New York’s Democratic primary has created panic in MAGAland. Stephen Miller, the architect of Donald Trump’s deportation policies, waxed apocalyptic: Scott Bessent, the Treasury secretary, declared that New York is about to turn into “Caracas on the Hudson.” And Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama basically declared New York’s voters subhuman, saying: These inner-city rats, they live off the federal government. And that’s one reason we’re $37 trillion in debt. And it’s time we find these rats and we send them back home, that are living off the American taxpayers that are working very hard every week to pay taxes. These reactions are vile, and they’re also dishonest. Whatever these men may claim, it’s all about bigotry. Miller isn’t concerned about the state of New York “society.” What bothers him is the idea of nonwhite people having political power. Bessent isn’t really deeply worried about Zamdani’s economic ideas. But he feels free, maybe even obliged, to slander a foreign-born Muslim with language he would never use about a white Christian politician, even if that politician were (like some of his colleagues in the Trump administration) a total crackpot. And while Tuberville stands out even within his caucus as an ignorant fool, his willingness to use dehumanizing language about millions of people shows that raw racism is rapidly becoming mainstream in American politics. Remember, during the campaign both Trump and JD Vance amplified the slanders about Haitians eating pets. And now that they’re in office, you can see the resurgence of raw racism all across Trump administration policies, large and small. You can see it, for example, in the cuts at the National Institutes of Health, which are so tilted against racial minorities that a federal judge — one appointed by Ronald Reagan! — declared I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable. I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this. You can see it in the renaming of military bases after Confederate generals — that is, traitors who fought for slavery. You can even see it in a change in the military’s shaving policy that is clearly custom-designed to drive Black men — who account for around a quarter of the Army’s new recruits — out of the service. So racism and bigotry are back, big time. Who’s safe? Nobody. Are you a legal immigrant? Well, the Supreme Court just allowed Trump to summarily strip half a million U.S. residents of that status, and only a fool would imagine that this is the end of the story. Anyway, when masked men who claim to be ICE agents but refuse to show identification are grabbing people off the streets because they think those people look illegal, does legal status even matter? Does it even matter if you’re a U.S. citizen? And the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is set to massively increase ICE’s funding — basically setting up a huge national secret police force. Now, maybe you imagine that you yourself won’t suffer from this new reign of bigotry and imagine that everyone you care about is similarly safe. But if that’s what you think, you’re likely to face a rude awakening. I personally don’t have any illusions of safety. Yes, I’m a native-born white citizen. But my wife and her family are Black, and some of my friends and relatives are foreign-born U.S. citizens. Furthermore, I’m Jewish, and anyone who knows their history realizes that whenever right-wing bigotry is on the ascendant, we’re always next in line. Are there really people out there naïve enough to believe MAGA’s claims to be against antisemitism, who can’t see the transparent cynicism and dishonesty? The fact is that the Trump administration already contains a number of figures with strong ties to antisemitic extremists. The Great Replacement Theory, which has de facto become part of MAGA’s ideology, doesn’t just say that there’s a conspiracy to replace whites with people of color; it says that it’s a Jewish conspiracy. So I’m definitely scared of what the many antisemites inside or with close ties to the Trump administration may eventually do. And no, I’m not frightened at all by the prospect that New York may soon have a somewhat leftist Muslim mayor. Anyway, my personal fears are beside the point. Everyone who cares about keeping America America needs to take a stand against the resurgence of bigotry. Because the truth is that we’re all rats now.

Fact Check: 125 Americans are shot and killed every day, and 200 MORE are injured — and Republicans just eliminated the tax on gun silencers as part of their “Big (Not-So) Beautiful Bill (Now Law).” Republicans added a provision in the final hours eliminates a nearly-century-old tax — which is currently $200 — for purchasing or making silencers, short-barreled rifles and shotguns, and other weapons.

And in the last 50 years across 18 of the wealthiest nations in the world not one has corporate tax cuts equated to higher job growth. 00:35 Not once. Or we can just look at the Trump tax cuts passed in twenty 17. Donald Trump created 40, 000 less jobs a month than Barack Obama did. And oh by the way that's leaving out COVID. That's leaving out all the job losses from the pandemic. There is one thing that happens when you give corporations big tax breaks. This right here. 50 years of data. You see that red line on top? That's the rich getting richer. You see those two lines on the bottom? That's the bottom 905percent? No In 01:06 twenty 18 corporations spent over a trillion dollars on stock buybacks and created less jobs than they did in twenty fourteen, 15, 16, and seventeen. You see the rich can afford to pump all of this misinformation into your brain. And that's why you believe it.
