Jon Husted (R-Ohio) visited Anduril and Path Robotics in Columbus to see their facilities firsthand and participated in a roundtable with agricultural leaders at the Hartford Fair to hear directly from Ohio workers, manufacturers and farmers about their priorities.\n\n“Ohio is building the future of American manufacturing, from the next generation of defense technology to the robotics that are helping our manufacturers compete and grow. Central Ohio is proof of that: Anduril is strengthening America’s national defense, while Path Robotics is helping Ohio manufacturers overcome workforce challenges and increase their productivity. I’m proud to see the work Ohioans are doing to strengthen our country and our state,” said Husted.\n\nHusted was joined by Rep. Mike Carey (R-Ohio) and Rep. Dave Taylor (R-Ohio) to tour the production floor at the Anduril’s Arsenal-1 facility and receive a briefing on the company’s current production of the autonomous Fury aircraft.\n\nFury is Anduril’s entrant in the Air Force’s Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) program. Husted supported CCA efforts to quickly transition to full-scale production of the CCA through language in the Fiscal Year 2026 National Defense Authorization Act Senate report.\n\nHusted also hosted a town hall discussion with workers at Path Robotics. Path Robotics develops AI-driven mobile welding systems that assist human welders with tasks in hard-to-reach places, improving workforce productivity and manufacturing throughout. The company was originally founded in Cleveland and employs more than 200 Ohioans.\n\nAdditionally, Husted visited the Hartford Fair with Rep. Troy Balderson (R-Ohio) to talk with Ohio farmers about their priorities.\n\n“Ohio’s farmers are the backbone of our economy, putting food on tables across our nation. I always appreciate the chance to spend time with them, hear about their work and learn more about what we can do to support the farmers who keep Ohio moving forward,” said Husted.\n\nAt the roundtable, Husted discussed his USDA Loan Modernization Act, introduced with Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.), which removes outdated eligibility barriers that prevent modern family farms from accessing USDA loan programs.\n\nHusted also supported the Working Families Tax Cuts Act to strengthen Ohio’s agricultural industry. The law includes eliminating the death tax for family-run farms, making permanent the 20% Qualified Business Income deduction for farmers and increasing Section 179 expensing limits to help farmers invest in new machinery, equipment and expanded operations.\n\nThese visits build on Husted’s work to help Ohio workers, manufacturers and small businesses. In the Senate, Husted is supporting:\n\nMade in America Manufacturing Financing Act: This bill would expand access to growth capital for small U.S.-based manufacturers.\n\nInvesting in All of America Act: This bill would expand access to capital for small businesses in rural and low-income communities, as well as those in the manufacturing and critical technology sectors.\n\nAI for Mainstreet Act: This bill would provide training, guidance and support to American small businesses looking to implement AI into their businesses.\n\nRepealing Big Brother Overreach Act: This bill would eliminate the requirement for small businesses to report beneficial ownership information to the Treasury Department, which is burdensome and overreaching.\n\nHusted also supported the Working Families Tax Cuts Act, which includes major provisions for small businesses and their workforce:","url":"https://www.husted.senate.gov/media/press-releases/husted-in-central-ohio-with-workers-at-anduril-and-path-robotics-farmers-at-hartford-fair/","published_at":"2026-08-14","ai_topics":["innovation","jobs","national_security"],"ai_stance":"oppose","ai_summary":"Touts AI-driven robotics and autonomous defense manufacturing in Ohio and backs the AI for Mainstreet Act to help small businesses adopt AI, favoring promotion over regulation.","ai_processed":true,"bill_ids":["b53edf6e057a8d33"],"ai_relevance_score":null,"bill_refs":[{"bill_id":"b53edf6e057a8d33","method":"title"}],"classifier":null},{"id":"af484620f8ecda7c","politician_id":"H001104","type":"press_release","content":"“This bipartisan package will strengthen our understanding of China’s action, improve enforcement and protect American companies, workers and innovations from Chinese espionage.”\n\nWASHINGTON – Sen. Jon Husted (R-Ohio) and Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.) introduced a package of four bipartisan bills to strengthen America’s national security and close loopholes that foreign adversaries, including China, can exploit.\n\n“America must continue to compete and win in the technology race, but we know that communist China’s strategy has never been to compete, but to steal and exploit. This bipartisan package would strengthen our understanding of China’s action, improve enforcement and protect American companies, workers and innovations from Chinese espionage,” said Husted.\n\n“The U.S. must continue to lead in the technologies that will define the future, and we cannot allow China or other foreign adversaries to exploit American innovation and turn our own technologies against us. These bipartisan bills make commonsense improvements that will strengthen America’s national security, protect our technological edge, and bolster our global competitiveness. I’m proud to introduce this legislative package that would give us greater insight into our adversaries’ capabilities and better prevent advanced U.S. technologies from falling into the wrong hands,” said Warner.\n\nThe lawmakers introduced the following bills:\n\nThe China AI Power Report Act. This bill would require the Secretaries of Commerce and State, in consultation with relevant federal agencies, to provide an annual report on the People’s Republic of China’s efforts to indigenize its artificial intelligence (AI) stack. This report would include information on Beijing’s progress to develop home-grown chip design and production, semiconductor manufacturing equipment, subcomponent production, model development and deployment competencies.\n\nThe ECRA Statute of Limitations Extension. This bill would amend Sections 1760 and 1774 of the Export Control Reform Act (ECRA) to extend the statute of limitations for prosecuting violations of ECRA from five years to 10 years. ECRA currently lacks an explicit statute of limitations and is thus subject to the five-year federal period, even as Chinese technology smuggling operations frequently take years longer to uncover and prosecute.\n\nThe Addressing Dangerous Vulnerabilities in Exports and Research to Strategic Adversaries, Regimes and Industrial Entities of Security Concern (ADVERSARIES) Act. This bill would direct the Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) to study whether U.S.-domiciled affiliates of designated Chinese companies allow these companies to circumvent export controls to access controlled technologies.\n\nThe Bureau of Industry and Security Strategic Talent Recruitment to Enhance National Guardrails for Technological Handling (BIS STRENGTH) Act. This bill would grant BIS temporary hiring authority to recruit highly qualified subject matter experts to guide BIS management of advanced technology export controls and fill BIS technical expertise gaps.\n\nAll four of these bills have been introduced on a bipartisan basis in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Jon Husted (R-Ohio) today joined Vice President JD Vance, the Task Force to Eliminate Fraud and other lawmakers at the White House for a roundtable discussion on efforts to eliminate fraud and abuse in the federal government and protect American taxpayers.\n\n“Every dollar that is misused because of waste, fraud and abuse is a dollar we cannot invest in our local communities and strengthening our economy. And with a national debt at nearly $40 trillion, there is no money to waste. Our government has turned a blind eye to fraudsters for too long, but we have strengthened protections in the recent budget bill and under Vice President Vance’s leadership, the Trump administration is attacking this problem more aggressively than any other,” said Husted.\n\nThe conversation focused on how to improve data sharing, mandate stricter penalties for egregious fraud and increase funding for anti-fraud efforts.\n\nHusted is leading several bills in the U.S. Senate to safeguard American taxpayer dollars and eliminate waste and fraud:\n\nThe Preventing Deepfake Scams Act. This bipartisan, bicameral bill would address data and identity theft or fraud fueled by artificial intelligence (AI)—commonly known as “deep fake” scams—by establishing a task force on AI in the financial services sector.\n\nThe Student Aid Fraud Oversight and Accountability Act. This bill would require strong safeguards to prevent student aid fraud. Specifically, it would target “ghost students,” a stolen or fabricated identity that impersonates a student to enroll in classes to fraudulently obtain federal and state financial aid.\n\nThe Clawing back Lapsed Obligations from State Emergency programs (CLOSE) Act. This bill would cancel the unspent tax dollars assigned during the COVID-19 pandemic for emergency unemployment payments and terminate the program.\n\nHusted is also a co-chair of the Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions (HELP)subcommittee on Education fraud. This task force aims to tackle fraud in federal funding in education systems.\n\nAdditionally, Husted is a cosponsor of the Protecting American Taxpayers Act, a bipartisan legislative package containing 17 initiatives to recover stolen funds, strengthen anti-fraud safeguards and better protect taxpayer dollars.

Jon Husted (R-Ohio) joined Sen. Andy Kim (D-N.J.) in introducing the Children Harmed by AI Technology (CHAT) Act 2.0. This bipartisan bill builds off Husted’s previous CHAT Act, establishing a federal framework to protect minors from harms associated with companion artificial intelligence (AI) chatbots through a tiered, risk-based approach.\n\nThe bipartisan CHAT Act 2.0 would also prohibit AI companion chatbots from engaging in harmful behaviors with minors, including encouraging self-harm, generating sexual content, impersonating humans or licensed professionals and engaging in emotionally manipulative or romantic interactions.\n\n“We need to protect children in the digital world the same way we do in the physical world. As AI becomes more advanced and more accessible, we have a responsibility to make sure these tools are not exposing children to dangerous, manipulative or inappropriate interactions. The CHAT Act 2.0 would put guardrails in place to keep parents informed, protect children from harm and ensure their safety comes before unchecked technology,” said Husted.\n\n“We all just want peace of mind that our kids will be okay growing up in this era of algorithms and AI. That’s why we need guardrails in place to keep up with ever-evolving technology like chatbots and make sure our kids’ safety, mental health, and well-being are always put first,” said Kim.\n\nThe CHAT Act 2.0 would:\n\nRequire age assurance and parental involvement, including parental controls and notification if a minor expresses suicidal ideation.\n\nMandate clear disclosures that chatbots are not human, establish use limits and break reminders, implement crisis referral protocols and prohibit AI from providing crisis counseling to minors.\n\nImpose stronger safeguards on higher-risk systems, including limits on memory, professional supervision for therapeutic AI and pre-deployment risk assessments.\n\nInclude strong data privacy protections and enforcement authority for the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys general.\n\nCreate a three-tier framework that applies appropriate safeguards based on a chatbot’s intended purpose:\n\nEducational chatbots,\n\nCompanion chatbots,\n\nHealth chatbots.\n\nIn September 2025, Husted introduced the initial CHAT Act. The CHAT Act 2.0 is an updated version of this bill, which now includes a tier system that would allow different chatbots to adhere to varying restrictions based on the risk level they present. Additionally, it would address several industry concerns by not including customer service bots or video game-related bots in its definitions. It also includes data privacy protections that are in line with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act.\n\nBackground:\n\nAI companion chatbots are computer programs designed to simulate human conversation, either through text or voice.\n\nChatbots have prompted users to engage in self‑harm and exposed minors to adult content. In one Texas case, a Character.AI chatbot encouraged a teenager to kill his parents because they restricted his screen time.\n\nThis bill builds on Husted’s work to protect kids online.\n\nIn March 2026, Husted introduced Sammy’s Law. This bipartisan bill would empower parents to protect their children on social media platforms by providing them the right to know if their children are engaging in dangerous or risky interactions.\n\nIn January 2026, Husted introduced the bipartisan No Fentanyl on Social Media Act. The bill would direct the FTC to report to Congress on minors’ access to fentanyl through social media, with recommendations to address this growing threat.\n\nIn December 2025, Husted joined the Kids Online Safety Act to protect minors’ personal data on online platforms and implement safety tools for parents and minors to target any harmful online content for children.","url":"https://www.husted.senate.gov/media/press-releases/husted-kim-lead-bipartisan-bill-to-protect-children-from-ai-companion-chatbots/","published_at":"2026-07-29","ai_topics":["children","safety","regulation","privacy"],"ai_stance":"support","ai_summary":"Husted champions the bipartisan CHAT Act 2.0 to impose a federal risk-based regulatory framework with guardrails on AI companion chatbots used by minors.","ai_processed":true,"bill_ids":["87ac4e58ee5efe4c"],"ai_relevance_score":null,"bill_refs":[{"bill_id":"87ac4e58ee5efe4c","method":"title"}],"classifier":null},{"id":"4f514f8ee6622a2e","politician_id":"H001104","type":"press_release","content":"“The Ratepayer Protection Act would keep America globally competitive while protecting Ohioans and Americans from higher electricity bills.”\n\nWASHINGTON – Sen. Jon Husted (R-Ohio) introduced the Ratepayer Protection Act to ensure American families and small businesses aren’t left paying for the energy infrastructure needed to support new data centers.\n\n“If America wants to lead the world in AI and strengthen our national security, we have to build the energy infrastructure to support it. But we must do that without passing the costs on to working families and small businesses. The Ratepayer Protection Act would keep America globally competitive while protecting Ohioans and Americans from higher electricity bills,” said Husted.\n\nThe Ratepayer Protection Act would require states to consider establishing standards for states and Public Utility Commissions when connecting large electricity users—such as data centers—to the grid. It ensures those customers, not families or small businesses, pay for the power generation, transmission lines and other infrastructure needed to serve their facilities. Without those protections, utilities can shift those costs onto ratepayers through higher monthly electricity bills.\n\nReps. Gabe Evans (R-Colo.) and Kathy Castor (D-Fla.) introduced the companion bill to the Ratepayer Protection Act in the U.S. House of Representatives.\n\n“As America races to lead the world in AI, we must build the energy infrastructure needed to support this innovation, and stay ahead of competitors like Communist China. But Colorado families, farmers, and small businesses should not be forced to cover the costs of new power generation driven by these developments. The Ratepayer Protection Act is a bipartisan, commonsense solution that protects everyday Americans and ensures our nation can continue to win the AI race,” said Evans.\n\n“My neighbors across Florida are grappling with skyrocketing electric bills. Ratepayers should not have to subsidize wealthy corporations’ growing energy demands, especially from AI data centers. The Ratepayer Protection Act safeguards consumers by ensuring these data centers pay for the energy and grid upgrades they need so hardworking families and local businesses are not stuck paying more,” said Castor.\n\nIn March 2026, Husted joined President Donald Trump at the White House for a roundtable focused on lowering energy costs near new data centers. During the event, President Trump signed the Ratepayer Protection Pledge, with major technology companies committing to cover the full cost of the energy and infrastructure needed for new data centers instead of shifting those costs onto consumers. The Ratepayer Protection Act would codify key elements of that pledge.\n\nBackground:\n\nIf enacted, the bill would propose standards that state regulators could enforce when considering integrating new large-load customers with a demand of 100 megawatts or more onto the grid. Those recommendations include:\n\nRecovery of full, incremental cost of upgrades by the large-load customer over a long period of time through a special rate charge or other agreements. This protects utilities and their ratepayers from being left responsible for upgrade costs associated with a large-load customer, even if that customer later reduces operations or leaves the system entirely.\n\nFinancial assurances requiring the large load customer to pay for any generation, transmission or other infrastructure necessary to serve their load, protecting utilities and ratepayers from that financial burden. This ensures large-load customers are responsible for the fixed costs associated with serving their demand rather than passing those costs on to families and businesses through higher monthly electricity bills.","url":"https://www.husted.senate.gov/media/press-releases/husted-leads-bill-to-protect-americans-from-footing-the-bill-for-new-data-centers/","published_at":"2026-07-20","ai_topics":["data_centers","regulation","innovation","national_security"],"ai_stance":"support","ai_summary":"Husted's
