Sen. Adam Schiff: voluntary White House AI pledge insufficient, backs new federal AI regulator

In a Decoder interview, Sen. Adam Schiff criticized the Trump administration's handling of technology and national security, called a recent White House non‑binding pledge by AI executives insufficient, and said he supports creating a new federal agency to regulate AI. He also warned that the Supreme Court's rollback of Chevron deference (Loper Bright) means new rules could face immediate litigation and complicate agency-based oversight.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom issued an executive order directing state officials to convene experts and deliver recommendations within two months on tightening AI oversight, including requiring independent on-site verifiers, standardizing transparency and risk reports, mandating reporting of "loss-of-control incidents," and creating a routinely verified "kill switch" for frontier models. The order also instructs agencies to speed implementation of recently signed state laws that create a framework and registry for independent AI verifiers and is presented as a potential model for federal action.
