Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
4 provisions identified: 3 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.
No pay, expense help for Task Force
Members serve without pay. They may get travel and per diem reimbursements if funds are available, following Department of Administration travel rules. GEDA provides administrative and clerical support. The Chair and the CTO may ask the Legislature for extra funding, which requires legislative appropriation.
Who serves on Guam's AI Task Force
The Task Force has 12 voting members. They include the Senator who chairs the Technology Committee, the Attorney General or designee, the Chief Justice or designee, four Executive Branch designees (CTO, and the directors or designees of the Bureau of Statistics and Plans, Guam Homeland Security, and the Department of Labor), the University of Guam president or designee, the Guam Memorial Hospital administrator or designee, the Guam Economic Development Authority administrator or designee, and two private‑sector members (one named by the Speaker and one by the Governor). The Senator is the Chair, and the CTO is the Vice Chair. A quorum needs a majority of all members and at least one private‑sector appointee present. The Task Force may invite a Department of Defense representative as a non‑voting participant.
Stronger government tech security and audits
The Chief Technology Officer oversees government‑wide AI and technology work and related interagency groups. The CTO ensures AI frameworks follow privacy, cybersecurity, data governance, and civil‑liberties protections. The CTO sets rules to reduce threats, assesses security risks, and performs security audits of government IT and communications systems.
Guam AI Task Force to set rules
The law creates the Guam Artificial Intelligence Regulatory Task Force to study AI and recommend a full framework. It focuses on rights, privacy, fairness, data security, and how government uses AI in decisions. It meets every two months and files reports at 4, 8, 12, 16, and 18–20 months after its first meeting; the final report includes proposed laws and rollout plans. Meetings follow the Open Government law, and public minutes are kept; parts can close only to protect cybersecurity, national security, or sensitive law‑enforcement work. It can form subcommittees and invite experts to help. The Task Force ends 24 months after its first meeting unless extended by law; it can ask for one 90‑day deadline extension with 30‑days’ notice and may request one 24‑month extension with a plan between months 20–22.
