What they stand for
Young has spent time focused on a few core fights. Each is tied to bills actually introduced or votes actually cast.
- 01Supports expanded access to emerging technologiesYoung sponsored the Artificial Intelligence Public Awareness and Education Campaign Act (S.1699), which would direct a public education effort on artificial intelligence, and the Synthetic Biology Advancement Act of 2025 (S.2695), which would promote research and development in synthetic biology. Both bills address federal roles in preparing the public and research sector for advances in emerging science and technology fields.
