Key Requirement
HB 2094 would have required high-risk AI developers to implement safeguards against algorithmic discrimination. Governor Youngkin vetoed the bill on March 24, 2025; no dedicated AI law currently in effect.
Oregon has not enacted a comprehensive AI law. Its one binding AI statute, SB 1571 (2024), requires disclosure of AI-generated 'synthetic media' in campaign communications (up to $10,000 per instance). An AI Task Force report and 2024 Attorney General guidance apply existing consumer-protection and privacy law to AI but are not new binding rules.
