As Congress fails to pass federal AI legislation, states have moved to regulate the technology themselves, even as the Trump administration pushes to limit state oversight efforts.

The episode also covers weekly news on mail-in ballots, SNAP participation and state wildlife protections, alongside the AI discussion.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.
