Chris Stewart
Chris Stewart is a former Republican U.S. Representative from Utah who co-founded Public First Action, a nonprofit organization advocating for artificial intelligence safeguards and regulation. He currently leads the group alongside former Democratic Representative Brad Carson, focusing on electing lawmakers who support responsible AI policies. Stewart is best known for launching a $15 million campaign to back Republican members of Congress who favor AI guardrails, challenging the assumption that Republicans uniformly oppose tech regulation.
“Republicans know better, said co-founder and former Republican lawmaker Chris Stewart, pushing back on the industry framing that any guardrail is an attack on innovation.”
