Ramirez (Il-03), Ranking Member of the House Homeland Security Subcommittee on Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection, and Congressman Greg Casar (D-TX) led 17 members of Congress calling on Speaker Mike Johnson (LA-04) to immediately schedule open hearings with the CEOs of America’s largest AI companies.\n\nIn a letter to Johnson, the members wrote: “Advanced AI models pose a clear risk to the safety and security of the American people. [...] At the same time, Artificial Intelligence threatens to displace millions of American workers. [...] Unfortunately, Congress has so far completely failed to respond to the threats posed by AI development. That must change. The CEOs of the largest AI companies should answer questions under oath, and Americans should have a chance to hear from independent experts on the dangers posed by this technology. We urge you to work with the committees of jurisdiction to schedule hearings immediately.”\n\nThe letter comes on the heels of leading AI companies, including OpenAI, Anthropic, and Meta, announcing that their models escaped test environments to hack other organizations. The members write: “The American people deserve clear answers about the causes of these incidents, what failures or potential negligence at the companies led to them, and the types of regulation required to make sure they never happen again,” the letter says.\n\nThe letter is cosigned by U.S. Representatives Yassamin Ansari (AZ-03), Becca Balint (VT-AL), Joaquin Castro (TX-20), Jesús G. \"Chuy\" García (IL-04), Sylvia R.

Ramirez (IL-03), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus Immigration Taskforce and Ranking Member of the Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Protection Subcommittee, and Congressman Henry C. “Hank” Johnson, Jr. (GA-04) co-anchored a hearing, “The Tech Behind ICE: Oligarchs, Immigration Enforcement, and the Threat to Democracy,” on ICE’s use of technology for mass surveillance, threatening democracy and eroding civil rights. The hearing comes after an explosive report by Mijente outlined how technology is being utilized by the administration to supercharge the surveillance state and expand immigration enforcement.\n\nThe hearing also shed light on how a small group of tech oligarchs is benefiting economically and politically from the contracts provided by the Trump Administration. For example, Palantir, an AI software company powering ICE’s targeting system, received over $1.8 billion in government funding since January 2025 alone.\n\n“As a Chicagoan, I know Black and Brown communities are no strangers to overpolicing, surveillance, and criminalization. And I have had a front row seat as the Trump administration has aggressively accelerated the use of technology and artificial intelligence in its militarized immigration enforcement campaign. Private companies, like Palantir, ClearviewAI, and Flock Safety, are all amassing record-breaking profits from the surveillance, detention, and deportation of our friends, families, and neighbors,” said Rep. Ramirez. “Today’s witness will help us understand what Congress must do to defend our communities and civil liberties from DHS’s ever-expanding surveillance state.”\n\n\"I want to thank Rep. Ramirez for holding this critical shadow hearing. Americans cannot afford gas, groceries, or healthcare, yet the Trump Administration and MAGA Republicans are pouring money into funding these mass surveillance tools used by ICE agents operating with impunity.
