Congress's Preferred AI Tool is ChatGPT
According to a report, OpenAI's ChatGPT has become the most widely used artificial intelligence tool among U.S. Congress members and their offices in terms of financial investment. House disbursement records show that during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2026, approximately $100,580 was spent on ChatGPT across 798 transactions—accounting for about 90% of all AI-related spending by House offices. Anthropic's Claude followed with significantly less funding at around $13,160. Congressional staff are utilizing these tools to enhance productivity in various tasks such as drafting memos and social media posts, analyzing legislation, responding to constituents, preparing for hearings, sorting through policy research, and more.
