The Subcommittee on Cybersecurity, Information Technology, and Government Innovation will hold a hearing titled “Shaping Tomorrow: The Future of Artificial Intelligence” on September 17, 2025. Chairwoman Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) announced the session, which will focus on the current state of artificial intelligence (AI) in the United States and its impact on various sectors of the economy.
The hearing aims to examine how AI is being used to improve efficiency and reduce waste across industries such as health care, transportation, and agriculture. Members of the subcommittee will also discuss predictions about future developments in AI and consider how American companies are contributing to advancements in this field.
Chairwoman Mace stated, “The U.S. must explore all possible avenues to develop and advance AI if we want to remain leaders in the global technology race. From health care to transportation to agriculture, AI is revolutionizing industries to improve outcomes and efficiency. As companies compete for dominance with increasingly sophisticated frontier language models, Congress must examine its impact in current and future domains. We look forward to hearing from witnesses about the future of AI and discussing the best path forward for maintaining the U.S.’s technological dominance.”
Witnesses scheduled for the hearing include Ms. Kinsey Fabrizio, President of the Consumer Technology Association, and Mr. Samuel Hammond, Chief Economist at the Foundation for American Innovation. The event will take place at 2:00 p.m. ET in Room 2247 of the Rayburn House Office Building and is open to the public with a livestream available.
