AI for America Act
The source supplies the latest action, but no lifecycle stage.
Latest action (25 Nov 2025): Referred to the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, and in addition to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
What this bill does
The AI for America Act would direct federal agencies to develop and periodically update a national strategy for artificial intelligence. It requires the Director of the Office of Science and Technology Policy, working with other agencies, to submit an "action plan" to Congress by July 31, 2027, covering AI leadership, workforce development, research infrastructure, and public-private partnerships involving the Department of Energy, NASA, NIST, and the National Science Foundation, with updates at least every two years. Within one year of enactment, the Director must also identify regulatory barriers to AI adoption in healthcare, scientific research, transportation, and other relevant sectors. Separately, NIST must report to Congress within one year on methods—such as internal reviews, audits, and disclosure requirements—to detect and address security risks and ideological bias in AI data, training, or outcomes, including how federal agencies currently assess and correct such issues.
The bill primarily affects federal agencies involved in AI policy and research, including OSTP, NIST, the Department of Energy, NASA, NSF, and agencies overseeing healthcare, transportation, and scientific research regulation. Indirectly, it could affect industries and researchers working with AI if resulting recommendations lead to regulatory or policy changes, though the bill itself only mandates planning, reporting, and analysis rather than new substantive rules.
The bill was introduced on November 25, 2025, by Rep. Jennifer Kiggans and referred to the House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology and the Committee on Energy and Commerce for consideration. It has not yet been voted on, and would need committee action, House and Senate passage, and presidential signature before becoming law.
