Team, I wanted to make sure you saw the news about a piece of legislation I recently introduced – the bipartisan No AI FRAUD Act.
As emerging technology, AI presents both challenges and opportunities – some exciting, some dangerous. You’ve probably heard of something called a “deepfake” – an image or recording that has been altered to misrepresent the subject. With AI, bad actors can manipulate video or audio to give the appearance that someone did or said something when that’s not the case. You can see the threat to our safety, privacy, and trust online.
That’s why my colleagues and I introduced the No AI FRAUD Act to give all Americans the tools to protect and defend our right to our own voice and likeness.
Here’s how this legislation works:
- Creates an intellectual property right that every individual holds over their own likeness and voice
- Allows individuals to seek monetary damages for harmful, unauthorized uses of their likeness or voice
- Guards against sexually exploitative deep fakes and child sexual abuse material

More soon,

P.S. Be on the lookout for some exciting supporters of this legislation.
