The National Court Reporters Association’s Government Relations Department (NCRAGR) has launched a dedicated resource section on the NCRA website for federal and state legislators, their staff, and policy researchers.
The hub centralizes materials critical to understanding the legislative landscape around court reporting and artificial intelligence (AI) transcription including documented cases of prominent digital transcription failures in legal settings, news coverage, and reported accounts illustrating the real-world consequences of deprioritizing judicial integrity.
Also available is NCRA’s white paper, in both full and executive summary form. The page provides a research backed examination of the risks posed by unregulated digital and AI transcription technologies as well as documentation of the pitfalls and consequences of their failures.
This resource section is part of an ongoing effort to ensure that information is easily accessible for those researching the possibility of cosponsoring NCRA’s two federal bills currently before the U.S. Congress: HR 7997 and S 4154.
As the Association awaits Judiciary Committee hearing dates in both the U.S. House and Senate, NCRA is actively working to build bipartisan support on Capitol Hill and wants every interested office to have immediate access to the materials they need. All content in this section should be regarded as a work in progress and not in its final form.
Members are encouraged to submit any documentation, case studies, or news coverage they believe would strengthen this hub. If you have materials that speak to digital transcription failures or the importance of certified court reporters in the justice system, please send them directly to Colin Brehm, NCRA State Government Relations Manager at cbrehm@ncra.org.
Every contribution strengthens NCRA’s collective effort to ensure accurate, verbatim records remain a cornerstone of the justice system.
