Tech industry launches $100 million push to block state AI rules

Technology Nov 28, 2025

Big tech is going all-in to stop states from making their own AI laws before the 2026 elections.
OpenAI's Greg Brockman and Andreessen Horowitz just kicked off a $10 million ad blitz with their new super PAC, Leading the Future, hitting TV, digital, and social media.

Why should you care?

Meta's also in the mix with two new super PACs aiming to elect pro-AI candidates in key states.
With over $100 million expected to be spent, tech giants want federal rules instead of a patchwork of state laws—especially as more than 1,000 state-level AI bills were introduced this year.
The outcome of the 2026 elections could decide who really gets to shape how AI works in America for years to come.
