**Source:** GovInfo HTML → prep → KBMill Small  
**Brick id:** `HR5388_AI_Leadership_Uniformity_119IH` · slug `hr-5388-ai-uniformity`

## Purpose
Residual-honest package of national AI policy, a required National AI Action Plan, and a **temporary 5-year state-law moratorium/preemption** on regulating AI models/systems/automated decision systems in interstate commerce (with carve-outs).

## What it can quote
- Short title; definitions (AI model/system, automated decision system)  
- SEC. 4 policy; SEC. 5 Action Plan  
- SEC. 6 State law preemption / temporary moratorium (and exceptions)  
- SEC. 7 rule of construction  

## Must NOT
- Not legal advice. IH ≠ enacted law.  
- Do not treat the moratorium as permanent or without carve-outs — cite SEC. 6(a)(2).  
- Contrast FRONTIER preemption language via that brick; do not merge.
