WASHINGTON — Democrats on Capitol Hill are forming a new working group on artificial intelligence and prioritizing how to prevent deepfakes from wreaking havoc on personal lives, national security and the upcoming 2024 elections. Rep. Derek Kilmer, D-Wash., will chair the new AI working group in the New Democrat Coalition, a 97-member bloc of House members that typically avoid the spotlight but wield significant influence over policy within the caucus. "There's real concern about the potential for AI generated disinformation, real concern about misuse of advanced AI models," Kilmer told CNBC. Another concerning aspect for many lawmakers is what AI generated images could mean in the world of campaign ads. Ron DeSantis recently used AI in an ad to replicate former president Donald Trump's voice "reading" a post that Trump had written on social media.

CNN —During a closed-door lunch on Tuesday, JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon told moderate House Democrats that Congress should abolish the debt ceiling, a person familiar with the matter tells CNN. “Get rid of it,” Dimon told lawmakers of the debt ceiling, according to the source. During the lunch, Dimon described the debt ceiling as an “unmitigated disaster” and urged lawmakers to reform it to prevent future crises, the source told CNN. “If I had my druthers, I would get rid of it one day,” Dimon told reporters in comments aired by CNBC. They are not a ten-foot giant,” Dimon told reporters after the lunch, speaking of China.

A growing number of conservative lawmakers are opposing Biden and McCarthy's debt-ceiling deal. They argued it does not include enough spending cuts, with Rep. Chip Roy calling it a "turd-sandwich." Lawmakers need to pass a bill to raise the debt ceiling before the US defaults as early as June 5. Both Biden and McCarthy said over the weekend that this deal is the best option for Americans. And McCarthy wrote on Twitter on Saturday that "I just got off the phone with the president a bit ago.
The House passed a resolution on Thursday denouncing the "horrors of socialism." "The socialism resolution is useless. Most Democrats joined every House Republican in voting for it. But 86 Democrats voted against it, and another 14 voted "present." "The socialism resolution is useless.
All of this is a direct result of the work Democrats have done in Congress and in the White House. While Democrats are moving America forward, Republicans are working to move our country and economy backward. Under President Biden's leadership, Democrats have grown our economy 3 times faster than when Republicans controlled Congress and the White House. This is what a pro-business, pro-worker, pro-economic growth party and economic plan look like. While Republicans look to the past, New Dems look to the future – and in about a week, Americans will decide between the two.
