Updated June 4,2025
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga., expressed regret Tuesday over her vote for the recent spending bill. Greene said she was unaware of a specific provision that restricts states’ rights to regulate artificial intelligence for a decade.
In a post on X, Greene stated that had she known about the section on pages 278-279, she would have voted against the bill. She is now calling for the Senate to remove the AI-related portion, criticizing the “free rein” it grants to perhaps dangerous AI development. Greene added that she would vote against the bill if the AI regulation restrictions remain when it returns to the House.
Greene is not alone in her criticism of the bill. Elon Musk previously called the spending bill a “revolting abomination.”
Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., described the spending cuts as “wimpy and anemic,” adding that the bill would “explode” the deficit. An analysis by the Congressional Budget Office supported Paul’s claim.
