Appreciate @Luke_Fountain25 & @emrwilkins sharing our @popvox report on Congressional expenditures on AI tools. As we note, it is VERY hard to compare apples to apples since most of the spend is through an enterprise Microsoft Copilot contract. cnbc.com/2026/08/03/openai-c…

ChatGPT dominates early AI spending in Congress as lawmakers weigh regulation

At least 70 House offices used identifiable AI tools in early 2026, with Democrats leading visible spending and broader use likely undercounted.

How are the House & Senate adopting AI? It's tough to get actual numbers but spending data shows an upward trend.

@SpeakerJohnsonApr 26
Kelly and I were at the event tonight, and we’re thankful no innocent people were harmed and everyone is now safe. We’re grateful as always for the law enforcement and first responders who acted so quickly to bring the situation under control. Praying for our country tonight.

Congress hasn’t officially declared war since World War II, but presidents have used a string of legal loopholes (and expanding legal opinions citing Article II authority) for military action without going to Congress. Our look at how we got here:

JOHNSON on MTP on govt funding "Well, let's say I'm confident that we'll do it at least by Tuesday. We have a logistical challenge of getting everyone in town and because of the conversation I had with Hakeem Jeffries, I know that we've got to pass a rule and probably do this mostly on our own."

221-205, House passes the “motion to discharge” the @RepJeffries 3-year ACA funding extension. NINE (!) Republicans join unanimous Democrats in voting to advance it. This tees up a final House vote tomorrow; it’s poised to sail through.
