Summary
Requires federal agencies to procure only large language models that meet two 'Unbiased AI Principles': truth-seeking and ideological neutrality. OMB must issue implementing guidance that lets vendors show compliance through disclosures (such as system prompts and evaluations) instead of model weights, with exceptions for national security systems.

Status notes
Signed 23 July 2025 and published in the Federal Register on 28 July 2025 (90 FR 35389). It builds on Executive Order 13960 (US-29). OMB had to issue implementing guidance within 120 days and did so in Memorandum M-26-04 of 11 December 2025 (US-19). Agency heads must include in each LLM contract made after that guidance terms requiring compliance with the Unbiased AI Principles, with decommissioning costs charged to the vendor if the agency terminates for non-compliance after a reasonable period to cure; revise existing LLM contracts where practicable; and adopt compliance procedures within 90 days of the guidance. The order creates no right enforceable against the United States.

Recheck of 17 Oct 2026: re-read the GovInfo Federal Register text stored on 11 Oct 2026 and the White House page stored on 17 Oct 2026 (it differs from the 11 Oct copy only in a navigation menu label). Both confirm the title, EO 14319, the 23 July 2025 signature and the provisions; the GovInfo text confirms 90 FR 35389 (FR Doc. 2025-14217) of 28 July 2025. date_last_updated was 2025-12-11, the date of OMB M-26-04, which implements the order but does not amend it; neither stored text shows an amendment, so the field is now empty. The notes no longer carry the scope remark or the link to the AI Action Plan, which the order's text does not mention.
