Is Your Business Ready for the Coming Surge in AI Legislation?

Ready or not, here comes AI! In 2024, 445 AI bills were introduced across 40 states—and we expect to see even more bills introduced in the 2025 legislative season. Rather than wait for federal action, states are stepping up to the plate.

In 2024, California and Colorado passed AI regulation legislation that would have a sweeping impact on AI-forward businesses. While California’s bill was ultimately vetoed and Colorado legislators plan to clean up last year’s bill, many more states are expected to introduce their own proposals this year.

RXN is actively working with our clients in several states to educate legislators, regulatory staff, and relevant stakeholders to craft legislation that promotes responsible AI development and encourages innovation.
