Public First Action PAC

Overview

Bipartisan political action committee focused on AI governance, launched with $20M founding investment from Anthropic (February 12, 2026). Targets 30-50 state and federal races in 2026 election cycle.

Policy Priorities

  • Increase public AI visibility and understanding
  • Oppose federal preemption of state AI regulation without strong federal standards
  • Support export controls on advanced AI systems
  • Advocate for bioweapons-focused high-risk AI regulation

Strategic Context

Founded two weeks before Anthropic's DoD blacklisting, indicating preemptive political strategy rather than reactive response to government pressure. Operates in competitive landscape against Leading the Future PAC ($125M, pro-deregulation, backed by a16z, Greg Brockman, Lonsdale, Conway, Perplexity).

Timeline

  • 2026-02-12 — Founded with $20M investment from Anthropic
  • 2026-02-26 — Anthropic blacklisted by DoD (two weeks after PAC launch)

Significance

Represents Track 3 (electoral investment) in three-track corporate safety governance stack, attempting to overcome competitive market ceiling of voluntary ethics through statutory mandatory requirements.
