With Grok’s Law, I will introduce new legislation to provide the artificial intelligence industry with sweeping regulations, focused in a few key areas:

• Intellectual Property Protections

  • Requiring tech companies to get written permission from both creators and licensing agencies to use any form of media in their databases and training systems.

  • This includes retroactive permissions; all intellectual property used without permission must be removed from their systems until such permission is granted.

• Right to Privacy

  • You–and your likeness should–should be safe from non-consensually being used in training LLMs, or being used in their generated content.

• Defining Digital Sexual Assault

  • Grok, other AI bots, and their creators must be held accountable for the mass generation and distribution of CSAM; each and every instance of it.

  • The Take it Down Act made it law that non-consensual explicit content must be removed, but we are in a new era where explicit content can be made about anyone, anywhere, without their knowledge or consent. This requires rapid response and strict regulation.

• Environmental Impact Reduction and Restoration

  • Data centers will be required to pay for the excess of utilities they use, removing the financial burden from the consumer wallet.

  • Data centers will be required to utilize renewable energy by installing solar panels on unused roof space, as well as surrounding land where possible.

  • Data centers that consume and poison our drinking water will be required to build their own on-site water reclamation plants.

  • Data centers will no longer enjoy tax breaks and benefits while residents suffer. They must pay the same–or higher–level of property tax that anyone else would pay.

• Increase the Federal minimum wage to at least $15 over the next 2 years, with annual cost of living increases thereafter. Small businesses unable to sustain the new wage may apply for limited term subsidies.

• Limit the executive pay gap to a maximum of 1:1000 so employees at all levels can meet their needs.

• Raise the Social Security tax income cap and implement a tiered tax on all income–so the vital system supporting those who need it would not only survive, but thrive.

  • Raise the cap to at least $500,000

  • Tier 1: 4% Social Security tax on income between $500k–$10 million

  • Tier 2: 3% on income between $10 million–$100 million

  • Tier 3: 2% on income between $100 million and $1 billion

  • Tier 4: 1% on all income over $1 billion

• Implement a greed tax:

  • An additional 1% tax shall apply to all income over $1,000,000

  • An additional 1% tax shall apply to all income over $100,000,000

  • An additional 3% tax shall apply to all income over $1 billion

The pursuit of happiness requires freely accessible knowledge and education. We must:

• Provide First-Dollar education funding–which covers the cost of attendance at public colleges and universities–to support free and affordable options for both higher education AND trade and technical programs.

• Eliminate, forgive, and refund student loan interest

• Protect teachers’ autonomy, remove partisan influence from curriculum decisions, and pay educators the higher wages they deserve.

Expand–and reinstate–existing civil rights legislation like:

• The Equal Rights Act

• Roe v. Wade

• Respect for Marriage Act

Improve or create legislation to:

• Protect states’ rights to offering sanctuary

• Protect the sovereignty of Indigenous lands

• Permanently rejoin the peaceful organizations abandoned by the Trump administration, from the WHO to the UN Human Rights Council and

  • Limit the president’s ability to arbitrarily exist such arrangements without Congressional approval.

Make Immigration Safe Again

• Abolish ICE and thoroughly investigate and prosecute every detention, deportation, and constitutional violation.

• Dismantle The Department of Homeland Security and rebuild; this agency has forever tarnished its name and cannot exist as it is anymore.

• Reform the immigration system to make legal immigration accessible, safe, and streamlined

Legislation regarding Congress, SCOTUS, and the Executive Branch needs to be reformed and updated following the total collapse and failure of our checks-and-balances system.

• Overturn Citizens United

• Ban owning and trading private stocks, cryptocurrencies, and partaking in online betting and gambling services for all branches of government

• Secure future elections with and hand recounts for every election and–hopefully–the elimination of voting machines. Provide more accessible voting options like mail-in voting, and requiring enough polling locations to serve every American.

• Implement term limits and age limits for all elected officials, including the House, the Senate, SCOTUS, and the executive branch.

  • The people should have the power to recall an elected official no matter high the office may be.

You can’t freely pursue happiness without your health. We must implement a single-payer healthcare system. I propose APHA which will:

• Adapt the current Affordable Care Act to meet current needs

• Expand Medicaid coverage and absorb Medicare:

  • Stagger coverage availability over a two-year period, beginning with vulnerable demographics like children, disabled people, and seniors, and progressing to full population coverage over a two year period.

• Shift our existing Medicare tax to a Medicaid tax, with increase of 1.55% for both employers and employees, bringing the percentage to 5% and providing cost savings as private insurance premiums are eliminated.

• Repeal the law restricting the US government from negotiating pharmaceutical prices.

• Alternative Care

  • Allow people to pursue elective alternative forms of care alongside traditional medical care, like mind-body therapies, energy therapies, body-based methods,

  • Allow for full or partial coverage of alternative care with supervision of a primary care provider.
