The Golden Age of American innovation is on our horizon, if we choose it. Today we shared the Trump Administration’s technology policy agenda. whitehouse.gov/articles/2025/…

At the @MilkenInstitute Global Conference today, I discussed with @JBoorstin the Administration’s latest efforts on AI and emerging technologies. Ensuring these technologies are widely adopted will unlock new opportunities and improve quality of life of all Americans.

We are committed to ensuring our warfighters have the best tools at their disposal. Today, the @DeptofWar announced agreements with 7 leading AI companies to deploy advanced AI on classified networks, leveraging the full strength of America’s technology stack. war.gov/News/Releases/…

✅ PASSED ✅ The FCC voted today to increase the capacity of high-speed satellite broadband by 7X. America leads the way again. 🇺🇸

"This is the night sky that the Founding Fathers saw in Philadelphia on July 4, 1776, the first night of American independence. Those stars inspired the next 250 years of American excellence and exploration.” The words of @USAmbJapan Chief of Staff Erik Jacobs during his visit to @spacelabo_kitaq with @NASA astronaut @astro_kjell. @America250 @Freedom250

Great conversation this week with @MorganLBrennan at the @EximBankUS Annual Conference on the American AI Exports Program and the importance of sharing the U.S. tech stack with the world.

Continued progress on the National Quantum Initiative Reauthorization Act! Thank you @housescience leadership @repbrianbabin @repzoelofgren and @TXRandy14.

It was an incredible honor to meet @astro_reid and the entire @NASAArtemis crew today at the @WhiteHouse. Welcome home! 🚀

AMERICAN HEROES! 🇺🇸🚀 President Trump welcomes the incredible Artemis II astronauts to the Oval Office after their historic trip around the Moon, an epic moment for our nation!

Congrats to @SkydioHQ on committing $3.5 billion to expand U.S. manufacturing and secure American drone dominance! Under @POTUS’s leadership, we’re building a strong, secure American drone supply chain that protects our national security and keeps the U.S. at the forefront of this critical technology.

.@USTreasury's Office of Investment Security is launching the Investment Security Technology Initiative to convene leading experts and strengthen how we safeguard critical investments and emerging technologies. As @OIS Assistant Secretary Chris Pilkerton outlines in @barronsonline, this effort is essential to ensuring the United States remains secure and globally competitive.

Agricultural innovation is happening all across America, not just within the Beltway. Thrilled to see @USDA moving an important part of our Federal research enterprise closer to the regional innovation ecosystems that are home to American farmers, ranchers, and scientists. Federalist innovation in action!

America is leading the AI race and our foreign adversaries know it. The Trump Administration will not allow China to subvert American interests by stealing AI.

One year since @POTUS signed the Executive Order on Advancing AI Education for America's Youth 💪 ➡️@Usedgov expanded AI training for K-12 educators ➡️@USDOL prioritized AI-related registered apprenticeships ➡️@USDA brought AI education to 4-H and the Cooperative Extension System ➡️200+ companies and nonprofits committed millions $$ in free AI education resources for kids, parents, and teachers Coming Up ➡️we look forward to welcoming the Presidential AI Challenge Finalists to Washington!

The U.S. has evidence that foreign entities, primarily in China, are running industrial-scale distillation campaigns to steal American AI. We will be taking action to protect American innovation. These foreign entities are using tens of thousands of proxies and jailbreaking techniques in coordinated campaigns to systematically extract American breakthroughs. Foreign entities who build on such fragile foundations should have little confidence in the integrity and reliability of the models they produce. The U.S. government is committed to the free and fair development of AI technologies across a competitive ecosystem, from open-source to proprietary models.

The Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope is in final preparations for an early September launch, eight months AHEAD of schedule and UNDER budget. This milestone is the result of more than a decade of dedication and millions of hours of work by NASA and our industry partners. Their commitment is what’s making this moment possible and helping drive Gold Standard Science. Roman will help answer some of the biggest questions in science, investigating dark matter, dark energy, and the structure of the universe. Its images will be so large and detailed, there isn’t a screen in existence big enough to display them. This is just the beginning.

Great meeting three awesome high school hackers from @hackclub today at the @WhiteHouse. These students are building the future — loved hearing about their projects and energy. Keep shipping!

Director @mkratsios47 joined @ReedAlbergotti at this week’s @semafor World Economy summit to discuss the Trump Administration’s important efforts to revitalize America’s science and technology enterprise.
