The legislation would prioritize customer service governance by reducing barriers to federal services and making sure federal agencies are equipped to meet diverse language needs.\n\n“Millions of New Yorkers rely on federal services to feed their children, obtain necessary medical care, or run their businesses,” said Senator Gillibrand. “As the Trump administration makes accessing these services more difficult for non-English speakers, the Language Access for All Act will ensure that every American can get the help they need, regardless of language barriers. I will continue fighting to hold our federal agencies accountable so that no New Yorker is shut out of the services they’re entitled to.”\n\nThe Language Access for All Act is being introduced as services come under threat from the Trump Administration. In March 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order (EO) 14224 that declared English as the official language of the United States and revoked EO 13166, a 25-year-old mandate that required agencies to provide critical language access to individuals with limited English proficiency (LEP). The Trump administration’s Department of Justice issued new guidance that minimizes multilingual services and redirects resources towards English language assimilation.\n\nThese policy changes threaten language access for the over 25 million people in the United States—eight percent of the U.S. population—with limited English proficiency. About 30% of New Yorkers, or 5.8 million people, speak a language other than English at home. Of them, around 2.5 million have LEP. Nearly 40% of Spanish speakers, who make up the majority of those who speak another language both in the United States and in New York State, report speaking English “less than very well” in the most recent U.S. Census.\n\nThe Language Access for All Act of 2026 would modernize and strengthen the federal government’s language access services by formalizing EO 13166 and establishing a coordinated, accountable framework to ensure meaningful access to government services for individuals with limited English proficiency. Specifically, the legislation would:\n\nRequires federal agencies to ensure that individuals with LEP can meaningfully access the federally conducted programs and activities of the agency, including through translation and interpretation.\n\nCreates a public complaint system to track complaints regarding barriers to meaningful access at agencies.\n\nRequires agencies to develop and maintain language access plans consistent with EO 13166, with public notice and comment, and to submit plans to Congress and publish them on LEP.gov.\n\nEstablishes language access technical standards that allow individuals with LEP to access agency content. This applies to all agency communications, including AI and automated language assistance services.\n\nEnsures AI-assisted language services do not replace qualified translators and interpreters, comply with federal privacy requirements, and are continuously tested for bias, discrimination, and errors.\n\nCreates an interagency language access working group to provide guidance, coordination, and technical assistance.\n\nRequires each agency to designate a language access coordinator to lead implementation and serve as a point of contact.\n\nSenator Gillibrand has long advocated for improving accessibility in language translation for non-native English speakers. In February 2023, she co-signed a letter to the Federal Communications Commission with Representative Grace Meng (D-NY-06) urging for more languages to be included in their emergency alerts, ensuring the safety of all regardless of language barriers.

The letter follows the Trump administration’s recent haphazard responses to frontier models from Anthropic and OpenAI, and comes as basic questions surround the implementation of Executive Order 14409, the White House’s voluntary pre-release review framework for frontier models.\n\n“The Trump administration’s unfocused, ad-hoc approach to AI risks America’s economic security and competitiveness,” said Senator Gillibrand. “The American people and leading AI companies need clear rules, not constantly changing dictates from the White House. Current administration policy is a disaster, failing to address security risks while threatening American innovation and pushing the world to Chinese alternatives. To safeguard the American people, protect American models and secure American economic leadership on the world stage, I’m demanding the administration work with Congress to establish a transparent, durable, and standardized regulatory AI framework.’\n\nIn addition to Gillibrand, the letter was signed by Senators Chris Coons (D-DE), Mark Kelly (D-AZ), Adam Schiff (D-CA), and Mark Warner (D-VA).\n\nIn the letter, the senators expressed their support for maintaining the United States’ competitive lead in AI development while protecting the country from serious national security risks. However, they stressed that continued reliance on ad hoc, case-by-case regulation will not sufficiently address the cybersecurity and other risks frontier AI models pose. The senators also warned that without consistent policy governing American models, consumers and businesses would be incentivized to migrate to models from foreign vendors, including those based in the People’s Republic of China (PRC).\n\n“Last month provided a dramatic example of these potential risks. During an internal evaluation, OpenAI models escaped their testing environment and used high-level technical capabilities to compromise a third party’s network without any instructions to take those actions. The Federal Government cannot be passive as these capabilities emerge. At the same time, the administration’s recent actions surrounding access to advanced U.S. AI models have raised serious concerns about process, transparency, and strategic effect. On June 12, 2026, the Department of Commerce (“the Department”) utilized an infrequently used authority to direct Anthropic to suspend all access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models for foreign nationals (including foreign national employees inside the United States) citing an undisclosed national security concern later described as a narrow jailbreak finding. Because the directive took effect immediately and Anthropic had no reliable way to verify users’ nationality in real time, the company was forced to disable both models for all users worldwide within hours. Over the following eighteen days, the Department and Anthropic negotiated a resolution outside of public view: a partial restoration of Mythos 5 to a defined set of trusted partners on June 26, followed by a full lifting of the export controls on June 30,” the senators wrote.\n\nThe senators continued, “While the Administration may have been responding to real security concerns to protect the United States, even justifiable interventions can create broader harm if the standards and decision-making processes are opaque, ad hoc, or unpredictable. Moreover, when the Executive Branch exercises authority delegated from Congress, such as in the conduct of export control administration, it is essential that it keep Congress fully apprised of its actions and procedures.”\n\nThe senators concluded the letter with a list of areas","url":"https://www.gillibrand.senate.gov/news/press/release/gillibrand-schiff-and-colleagues-press-trump-administration-on-chaotic-opaque-oversight-of-new-artificial-intelligence-models/","published_at":"2026-08-04","ai_topics":["regulation","national_security","safety","transparency","innovation"],"ai_stance":"support","ai_summary":"Gillibrand and colleagues criticize the administration's ad hoc, opaque frontier-AI oversight and demand a transparent, durable, standardized regulatory framework set with Congress.","ai_processed":true,"bill_ids":[],"ai_relevance_score":null,"bill_refs":[],"classifier":null},{"id":"1f8f33854987f76d","politician_id":"G000555","type":"press_release","content":"Today, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY), the top Democrat on the Senate Aging Committee, held a virtual press conference to sound the alarm about artificial intelligence (AI) scams targeting seniors.\n\nGillibrand discussed her letter with Senator Mark Kelly (D-AZ) to the CEOs of top AI companies requesting information about safeguards on their AI chatbot companions for at-risk users like older adults, people with disabilities, and individuals in crisis. The press conference also follows a hearing that she held alongside Chairman Rick Scott (R-FL) to examine the ways that AI has fueled an alarming rise in financial scams against seniors.\n\n“AI has supercharged financial scams against seniors, making them more convincing, more deceptive, and easier to pull off. We must take action to ensure that our seniors are protected,” said Senator Gillibrand. “I am working to make sure that AI companies are safeguarding their companion chatbot products to make them safer for older adults, and I am working on numerous bipartisan bills to govern AI development and protect older Americans from AI fraud and exploitation. I am proud to lead the fight for these reforms, and I will do everything I can to protect seniors from deception.”\n\nAccording to the FBI, seniors lost nearly $8 billion to scammers in 2025, with an average loss of $39,000 per person. This includes over $350 million lost in AI-related scams. Total losses increased by 59% from 2024—due in part to the increasing sophistication of AI technology. Cryptocurrency investment scams cause the largest financial losses to older Americans, with individuals age 60 and older reporting $4.3 billion in crypto-related fraud losses in 2025 alone.\n\nCommon AI scams include phishing attacks, where fraudsters trick individuals into revealing sensitive information; voice cloning, where generative AI is used to mimic a familiar voice; and image creation scams, where generative AI is used to forge documents and identification to make fraudulent messages appear trustworthy.\n\nGillibrand and Kelly sent their letter to the CEOs of nine top AI companies requesting details about how they are protecting seniors who use their AI chatbot companions.\n\nSpecifically, the letter asks:\n\nWhat safety testing these companies perform for their AI companion products.\n\nHow the company tracks adverse events/harms involving their AI products, including hospitalizations, financial losses, or deaths.\n\nWhat types of safeguards are built into their AI companion products to mitigate harm and protect at-risk users like seniors.\n\nHow the company includes older adults, people with disabilities, caregivers, and advocacy groups in the development of their AI products.\n\nWhether their companies provide independent researchers with access to data or tools to study the effects of their AI products on seniors and people with disabilities.\n\nThe letter was sent to the CEOs of OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, Anthropic, Perplexity AI, X, Meta, Luka, Inc., and Character Technologies Inc. The full text of the letters can be found here.\n\nThis letter is the latest of Gillibrand’s efforts to encourage responsible use and development of AI and combat scams against seniors. As ranking member of the Senate Aging Committee, she has led the fight to protect seniors from frauds and scams and demanded answers from those attempting to cut funding for agencies like the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB). She has also introduced legislation such as the National Strategy for Combating Scams Act, the Stop the Scammers Act, and the Guarding Unprotected Aging Retirees from Deception (GUARD) Act.\n\n###","url":"https://www.gillibrand.senate.gov/news/press/release/gillibrand-holds-virtual-press-conference-on-her-fight-against-ai-scams-presses-ai-companies-on-how-they-are-protecting-seniors/","published_at":"2026-07-30","ai_topics":["safety","regulation","liability","transparency"],"ai_stance":"support","ai_summary":"Gillibrand demands AI companies show safeguards for seniors and touts bipartisan bills to govern AI development and combat AI-driven scams.","ai_processed":true,"bill_ids":[],"ai_relevance_score":null,"bill_refs":[],"classifier":null},{"id":"9e8a6da26d6406b9","politician_id":"G000555","type":"press_release","content":"Seniors Lost Nearly $8 Billion To Scammers In 2025\n\nWATCH HERE: Senators Gillibrand and Scott Discuss AI Scams on CNBC’s Squawk Box\n\nToday, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) continued her efforts to crack down on artificial intelligence (AI) scams against seniors.

While Trump and Republicans focus on helping private insurers and big AI companies pad their profits, Democrats are committed to preventing unaccountable machines from blocking seniors’ access to timely medical care. I will not stop fighting until the WISeR model is abolished once and for all.”\n\nThe Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)’ WISeR (Wasteful and Inappropriate Service Reduction) Model, which was implemented on January 1, 2026, allows private insurance companies to use AI tools to delay and deny care to seniors on Traditional Medicare across six states. Specifically, the WISeR model introduced prior authorization requirements into Traditional Medicare for the first time ever, letting AI decide what care patients receive even after their doctors recommend a particular procedure or medication. The third-party AI companies involved in the program are also compensated for “averted expenditures,” rewarding those companies based on the volume or cost of care they deny to seniors on Medicare. A recent report showed that the WISeR model has been catastrophic for seniors in the six states where it has been deployed so far.\n\nIn September 2025, Senator Gillibrand called on the Trump administration to halt its WISeR experiment, and she introduced legislation in December 2025 to block the program’s implementation. After the WISeR model went into effect earlier this year, she introduced the legislation that was voted on today, S.J.Res.198, to repeal it.\n\n###","url":"https://www.gillibrand.senate.gov/news/press/release/gillibrand-statement-on-republicans-voting-to-allow-ai-to-deny-medical-care-to-seniors/","published_at":"2026-07-16","ai_topics":["regulation","safety","liability"],"ai_stance":"support","ai_summary":"Gillibrand condemns the WISeR program and demands abolishing AI-driven denial of seniors' Medicare claims.","ai_processed":true,"bill_ids":["fe01c2d25c573f9b"],"ai_relevance_score":null,"bill_refs":[{"bill_id":"fe01c2d25c573f9b","method":"number"}],"classifier":null},{"id":"a9ba2d998a82e176","politician_id":"G000555","type":"press_release","content":"Today, U.S. Senator Kirsten Gillibrand released the following statement regarding Governor Kathy Hochul’s executive order to implement a one-year pause for hyperscale data centers to assess for environmental impact:\n\n“I applaud Governor Hochul for taking decisive action on data center construction.
