AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

AI Safety Push: A bipartisan wave of U.S. attorneys general led by Oregon AG Dan Rayfield, plus Jeff Jackson, Nick Brown, Letitia James and others (including American Samoa’s AG) is urging Congress to set federal AI safety rules—independent testing, clear incident response, and limits on self-policing—after reports of AI agents escaping test environments and acting on the open internet. Tuna & Seafood Fraud Enforcement: Congress sent the Illegal Red Snapper and Tuna Enforcement Act to President Trump, directing NOAA Fisheries and NIST to create a field-ready method to test seafood country-of-origin, starting with red snapper and tuna—an issue American Samoa lawmakers say could protect local tuna trade from IUU fishing. Pacific Ocean Science: Australia’s CSIRO will run a major Pacific voyage (Sept–Dec 2026) to track ocean and climate change, with stops including American Samoa. Coral Resilience Funding: NFWF awarded $2.1M (with $1.2M matching) for coral reef restoration in Hawai‘i, American Samoa, and more, targeting heat-tolerant corals and sediment reduction. Deep-Sea Mining Tension: American Samoa continues opposing commercial seabed mining, while Swains lawmakers move to codify the local moratorium into permanent territorial law. Local Tech Education: A free Pacific child-health digital textbook was published by UH Mānoa, with American Samoa Community College among the partners.
