US Representative and a prominent populist-conservative voice, and one of the figures named in reporting on the coalition that defeated federal preemption of state AI regulation.
Position on AI preemption
Greene is among the actors Woolf's Transformer reporting identifies as decisive in defeating the ten-year state AI-regulation moratorium inserted into the 2025 "One Big Beautiful Bill" reconciliation package. She "publicly stated that she had not known the moratorium was in the bill when she" voted for it — a disclosure that gave the opposition a procedural argument alongside the substantive one.
The reporting places her on the populist side of a fissure running through the Trump coalition, opposite the technofuturist-libertarian side represented by Elon Musk, Marc Andreessen, and Peter Thiel. See AI Industry Discourse Analysis for the coalition-formation frame, and State-Level AI Regulation for what the moratorium would have preempted.
