🚨A massive bill called the One Big Beautiful Bill Act just passed the House and now it’s under review by the Senate.
Don’t be fooled. Behind the name is a thousand-page monster filled with corrupt, anti-democratic provisions:
Attacks on Checks & Balances
The bill blocks federal courts from holding government officials in contempt even if they violate judicial orders. Without the power to hold government actors in contempt when the court’s orders are violated, the orders cannot be enforced. That means less accountability for powerful politicians[1].
A Gift to Big Tech Donors: A 10-year ban on AI regulation
States and cities would be banned from enforcing their own AI rules just as AI deepfakes are exploding and becoming a major threat to election integrity[2]. Who benefits? Big Tech donors.
A Power Grab that Stomps on States’ Rights
Over 20 states[3] already have laws to stop AI election misinformation. This bill undermines a state’s right to govern within its borders and would allow fake political content to spread unchecked.
Let’s be clear: This bill is an attack on the balance of powers and a gift to Big Tech.
It attacks the power of the courts, one of the few institutions effectively restricting power grabs, and it’s a return on investment for the hundreds of millions that Big Tech pumped into the Trump administration. It’s a clear signal to other industries that this administration is corrupt and open for business.
