HR 9125

Rep. Sara Jacobs (D-CA) introduced the Sectoral AI Governance Act of 2026, which would assign AI oversight to existing federal agencies based on the sector where AI is used (think FDA for medical AI, EEOC for hiring AI) rather than creating one new mega-regulator. The bill is sitting in the House Judiciary and Oversight Committees, so nothing is law yet, but it signals where federal AI rules are heading.
