President Trump's missed AI deadlines
Key deadlines set out in President Trump's executive order targeting state AI laws have passed, with agencies failing to deliver on major steps that were due more than a month ago. Three provisions that were due on March 11 per the December 2025 order have not been completed or publicly announced. The Federal Trade Commission was supposed to issue guidance on how consumer protection law applies to AI models, including when it could override state laws that "alter their truthful outputs." The Commerce Department was due to review and publish an evaluation of state AI laws and flag "onerous" ones that conflict with federal policy to the Justice Department's AI Litigation Task Force. Commerce was also ordered to set rules tying broadband funding to state AI laws, potentially cutting off funds to states with certain regulations.
