Big news: I’ve joined @Workday as Public Policy Sr. Manager to lead our federal work on #AI and #Privacy! Grateful for an incredible run at @CTAtech with the powerhouse GLA team. Fired up for this next chapter driving bold policy for the future of enterprise tech!

[John E. Mitchell II @johnemitchellii]

Big news! @Workday secured dual independent verifications of our responsible AI practices—aligned with NIST’s AI RMF & ISO 42001. At a time when policymakers are shaping AI guardrails, we’re showing what trusted, auditable AI looks like in practice! https://t.co/i0I3c1Y4bu

@irdesheplo @Workday @CTATech The sign made me laugh, but how inviting!

@JimFellinger @Workday @CTATech Thanks, Jim!!

[J. David Grossman @JDGrossman]

Responding to the Administration's development of a 2025 #AI R&D Strategic Plan, @CTATech highlighted the force multiplier effects on private investments & the importance of a well-thought-out plan to ensure continued U.S. leadership in #AI. Read more: https://t.co/pN1ROemMi5

Great shoutout to CTA in @Politico's Morning Tech, highlighting our support for a @HouseCommerce proposed 10-year pause on state and local level #AI legislation.

@CTATech thanks @HouseCommerce for advancing a 10-year moratorium on state AI laws. With 1,000+ AI bills in state legislatures, startups face a patchwork nightmare! Startups & open-source builders don’t have compliance armies—they have ideas. This gives them room to innovate.

[Michael Petricone @mpetricone]

The Copyright Office just released its AI report — and there’s good news: no new copyright laws needed. That’s a big win for 🇺🇸 innovation. But parts still fall for licensing myths and imaginary market harm.

[Consumer Tech Association @CTATech]

CTA is where today’s tech innovators unite to push boundaries, advocate for innovation, and drive transformative solutions that move technology forward.

[Consumer Tech Association @CTATech]

The U.S. must modernize its energy infrastructure to power the next wave of AI innovation. CTA’s response to @RepFedorchak calls for faster permitting, grid upgrades, and a robust, all-of-the-above energy strategy to ensure reliability and resilience.

Thank you @RepSuhas, @RepMcCormick & @CongressmanRaja for leading the bipartisan push to modernize #H1B visa renewals. Streamlining this process is important to attract top global talent and keep America at the forefront of innovation!

[John E. Mitchell II @johnemitchellii]

@RonwHammond @BlockchainAssn Congrats Ron! So deserving 👏🏽!

[J. David Grossman @JDGrossman]

💯Thank you @GovofCO! @CTATech agrees that a state patchwork approach to #AI regulation will slow #innovation & hinder U.S. leadership. https://t.co/4Nfykqya49

[John E. Mitchell II @johnemitchellii]

CTA applauds @RepGuthrie & the E&C Committee leadership for recognizing that a patchwork approach to AI regulation hurts innovation, growth, and American competitiveness. 🎯

[John E. Mitchell II @johnemitchellii]

🎯Applauding @SenTedCruz for his clear-eyed remarks today in @SenateCommerce AI hearing. America must lead by empowering innovation—not smothering it with EU-style regulation. Just as we did with the internet, we can do it again with AI.

[Gary Shapiro @GaryShapiro]

Thank you @SenTedCruz for the powerful statement in today’s Senate Commerce Committee hearing on #AI: To win the AI race, the U.S. must reject EU-style overregulation and embrace the American entrepreneurial, light-touch approach that makes the internet thrive. Let’s safeguard innovation, freedom, and U.S. leadership.

[J. David Grossman @JDGrossman]

Thank you @GovofCO @COAttnyGeneral @SenatorBennet @RepJoeNeguse @RepPettersen & @denversmayor for your letter urging CO's General Assembly to delay CO AI Act until January 2027. @CTATech agrees a delay is necessary to ensure we get #AI regulation right.

[Consumer Tech Association @CTATech]

ICYMI: #CTATechWeek took over Capitol Hill. CES on the Hill showcased innovation in AI, robotics and digital health, while the Digital Patriots Dinner recognized Representatives @RepBillFoster and @RepDonBeyer and Former FTC Commissioner Christine Wilson as 2025 Digital Patriots.

[Michael Petricone @mpetricone]

We’re at a crossroads: Lead or lose. @mkratsios47 just dropped the playbook to US dominance:

✅ Dominate AI, quantum & energy
✅ Crush red tape
✅ Use our tech edge as diplomatic power
✅ Built like our future depends on it

This is how 🇺🇸 owns the 21st Century 🚀
