CREATE AI Act of 2025
Sponsored By: Representative Obernolte
Introduced
Summary
This bill would create a National Artificial Intelligence Research Resource (NAIRR) to broaden access to advanced computing, curated datasets, and AI testbeds for U.S.-based researchers, educators, and students. It would place a Program Management Office at the National Science Foundation and an OSTP-chaired steering subcommittee in charge of governance, security, and performance oversight.
Show full summary
- Researchers, educators, students, and universities would get access to on-premises, cloud, hybrid, and open-source compute, curated datasets, an AI open data commons, and a catalog of AI testbeds via a user portal. Access is limited to qualifying U.S.-based entities and excludes individuals employed by countries listed in 10 U.S.C. 4872(d)(2).
- Small businesses and startups, including SBIR/STTR awardees, would be eligible and could use a free access tier plus cost-based charges for additional usage. NAIRR could accept donations of cash, services, and property to help run operations.
- A PMO within NSF and an OSTP-led steering subcommittee would set privacy, ethics, safety, and cybersecurity standards aligned with NIST, require research security compliance under NSPM-33, publish KPIs, and conduct regular performance and independent evaluations.

Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 3 mixed.
New national AI research resource
If enacted, the government would set up the NAIRR within one year to help U.S. researchers, students, educators, agencies, and small businesses. Subject to funding, it would offer compute (on‑premise, cloud, and hybrid), selected data repositories and an open data commons, software tools, training, and AI testbeds. It would also provide an API to access AI models. Projects focused on privacy, safety, ethics, security, risk, and trust would get a significant share of compute and priority when demand exceeds supply.
National AI resource access and fees
If enacted, many U.S.-based researchers, educators, students, some public employees, and certain small businesses could apply to use the national AI resource (NAIRR). Small firms would need prior federal funding, like SBIR or STTR, to qualify. People employed by certain foreign governments listed in 10 U.S.C. 4872(d)(2) would not be eligible. The program could set fees that vary by user type and usage. A free tier would be required, funded by appropriations, with extra use charged at cost.
Funding and oversight for national AI resource
If enacted, agencies on the NAIRR steering subcommittee could provide money or resources to run the program. NAIRR could also accept private donations of cash, services, or property. NSF would create a Program Management Office with a leader and at least three full‑time staff. The PMO would form advisory committees with members from government, industry, universities, and public groups. Those committees would not have to follow the Federal Advisory Committee Act.
Security rules for national AI resource users
If enacted, all NAIRR users would need to follow minimum security rules that match the latest NIST Cybersecurity Framework. The program could add stricter security tiers and access controls based on risk. It would also set research security principles that stress openness, reciprocity, and transparency. A leader at the Operating Entity would serve as the research security contact to oversee compliance with NSPM-33 or its successor.
