Sanders Proposes Forcing AI Giants to Surrender 50% Equity and Board Seats in June

According to NOTUS, the U.S. government is negotiating voluntary equity stakes with leading AI companies, with OpenAI CEO Sam Altman spearheading talks with White House officials. The proposed structure mirrors Alaska's permanent fund model, directing AI-generated economic gains to American households through dividends.

Senator Bernie Sanders plans to introduce a more aggressive mandatory proposal in June 2026, proposing a one-time 50% stock tax on major AI firms, requiring them to surrender half their equity and board seats for democratic oversight of business decisions.
