What this amendment would do

This amendment, submitted by Mr. Warner and Mr. Rounds, aims to add a new section to bill S. 4784 to create the Economy of the Future Commission.

The purpose of this commission is to create agreed-upon legislative suggestions to handle economic changes caused by the use of artificial intelligence.

Key Objectives and Changes

The amendment adds the following to the bill:

  • Creation of a Commission: It establishes a group in the legislative branch consisting of 12 members appointed by congressional leaders and four nonvoting members appointed by the President.

  • Specific Duties: The commission is tasked with evaluating how artificial intelligence affects several areas, including:

    • Public education (K-12 and higher education) and workforce retraining.
    • Social safety net programs and worker support.
    • Government data, research, and the federal workforce.
    • Manufacturing, supply chains, and robotics.
    • Energy demands for data centers and transportation safety for autonomous vehicles.

  • Reporting Requirements: The commission must produce two main reports:

    • Interim Report: Due within 7 months, featuring employment and federal revenue estimates based on 6-digit NAICS codes.
    • Final Report: Due within 13 months, providing legislative recommendations on taxation, unemployment insurance, reskilling employees, and global competitiveness.

  • Funding and Timeline: The amendment appropriates $5,250,000 to fund the commission, which will terminate 120 days after the final report is submitted to Congress.
