Justice Department Creates AI Litigation Taskforce
|
9.1
The Justice Department announced on Jan. 9, 2026, it is creating an AI Litigation Taskforce to challenge state-level AI regulations, an internal memo from Attorney General Pam Bondi shows. The memo cites President Trump's December executive order and says the taskforce will contest laws as illegal, commerce-clashing, or preempted, consulting White House AI czar David Sacks. The move targets laws in Colorado, California, Utah and Texas and could reshape state oversight.
