## Resource

Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed is sounding the alarm on AI’s runaway pace, warning that without public oversight, the technology could deepen inequality and endanger lives. He proposes turning major AI firms into public trusts with democratically elected leaders holding veto power, alongside a new federal agency to set safety boundaries—no more AI denying healthcare, jobs, or even firing weapons. As governors like Utah’s Spencer Cox call for urgent federal action, El-Sayed argues we’re at a make-or-break moment: harnessing AI’s potential while preventing catastrophe demands bold, immediate regulation.
