WASHINGTON, Dec. 10, 2025 – President Donald Trump said he will issue an executive order “this week” on artificial intelligence which could impact state laws already in place.

In a post to Truth Social on Monday, the president said “there must be only one rulebook” when it comes to regulating AI and not a patchwork of laws from the states. He vowed to roll out an executive order on the topic later this week, sparking bipartisan pushback.

In an op-ed Tuesday, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., said she was concerned that upending existing state laws would “only multiply” the harms of AI, especially as Congress has not enacted federal standards on its own. Among Republican lawmakers pushing back this week were Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
