GOP Pushes to End AI Moratorium Amid Regulatory Battles

A group of 17 Republican governors urged Senate leaders to remove a 10-year moratorium on enforcing state and local AI laws from a GOP bill, warning it could undo their efforts to protect citizens from AI harms. The provision faces bipartisan opposition and is expected to be stripped from the bill. Meanwhile, other legislative updates include Senate debates on immigration fees, tax provisions, and the progress of a major GOP bill, with President Trump softening his July 4 deadline for its passage.

"Schumer's Border and Ukraine Deal Vote Next Week in Doubt"

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer plans to hold a vote next week on a measure combining an immigration crackdown with military aid for Ukraine and Israel, but faces resistance from Republicans in both chambers. Negotiators are finalizing a plan to address migration across the US-Mexico border, which is seen as crucial for further aid to Ukraine, but its prospects are uncertain due to opposition from right-wing Republicans and former President Donald J. Trump. The text of the agreement is yet to be released, and Senate Republicans' support remains unclear, with a test vote expected by Wednesday.

"Republican Senators Slam Trump, Declare Border Deal Dead"

Former President Donald Trump is facing resistance from some Republican senators over a potential bipartisan deal on border security, with Senator Kevin Cramer pushing back on Trump's characterization of the deal as a "betrayal." While Republican senators have been negotiating with the Biden administration and Democrats, the deal could face serious opposition from Republicans in the House, with Speaker Mike Johnson calling it "dead on arrival." Concerns have arisen over potential impact on Trump's key attack line of border security in the 2024 presidential election, with some Republicans wary of undermining Trump's stance. President Joe Biden has urged Congress to agree on the deal, which he claims would be the toughest and fairest set of reforms to secure the border.
