General Catalyst's policy arm, the General Catalyst Institute (GCI), submitted policy recommendations to the Trump White House for its inaugural AI Action Plan in early 2025. GCI endorsed the bipartisan SPEED Act (H.R. 4776) to streamline energy project permitting and submitted views on AI regulatory reform, advanced manufacturing, and digital asset frameworks. The VC firm positions itself as advising both parties on startup-friendly policy while maintaining a founder-focused rather than partisan stance.
