💨 Abstract

The Trump administration fired Shira Perlmutter, the U.S. Register of Copyrights, following the termination of Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden. Perlmutter's dismissal came soon after the release of a report on AI and copyright, which emphasized the importance of human creativity. Democrats criticized the move as a political purge. Perlmutter, with a background in intellectual property, had led the Copyright Office since 2020. The White House did not comment on the firings.
