Ways to reach them

Its AI responsibilities

Cross-partisan task force of Gen Z and millennial state legislators developing shared AI governance approaches across states; hosts public hearings and confidential briefings and produces a Bipartisan State AI Policy Memo.

Current business

Not a legislating body. Priestley authored Vermont's AI legislation; Fiefia authored Utah's social-media data-control law. The task force advises on model language that recurs across state bills.

Status

VERIFIED — launched July 2025, active through 2026; the most useful cross-state map of where AI language originates before it appears in individual state bills.

Public route

PARTIAL — the task force states it will 'host public hearings'; these are the practical entry point for members of the public who want to reach multiple state legislators at once. Legislator membership is by application (Gen Z and millennial state lawmakers). The public engages through the organization's contact channels and public hearing announcements.

Agency route

N/A — advocacy and convening body, not an enforcement agency.

Research note

Included per the AI caucus/task force request. Other state-level bodies worth tracking: Washington State AI Task Force (AG's office, final report July 2026); Virginia's AI task force under Executive Order 22 (18 Sep 2026); Maryland's Governor's AI Subcabinet (SB 818, 2024); the Texas Artificial Intelligence Council (7 public members, inside DIR, created by TRAIGA); Utah's Office of Artificial Intelligence Policy and AI Learning Laboratory; and New York's frontier-AI oversight office inside the Department of Financial Services.
