In 2026, significant AI employment law developments have emerged in the US, with federal and state initiatives setting new standards for AI use in workplaces, including preemption proposals and state-specific ADMT regulations. The Great American Artificial Intelligence Act proposes federal preemption of AI development rules but preserves state authority over AI use, impacting employer disclosure and layoff processes.

You must prepare for a single national AI employment standard if Congress adopts federal preemption, cutting through patchwork state rules. Colorado’s paused enforcement of its new AI decision law means you can reassess compliance timing but watch for resumed action soon.
