As with other efforts to erode federal civil rights oversight and enforcement, ED’s proposed rule is ‘like throwing away your umbrella in a rainstorm because you are not getting wet.’

In addition to mandatory notification of use outlined in this rule, the FDA should be using strong, science-based standards to independently review every chemical proposed for use in our food.

Congress must pass my Youth AI Privacy Act to protect kids using AI chatbots and pass COPPA 2.0 to update my original law.
