Summary
Oregon and California senators are teaming up to stop AI from hijacking elections with a new bill that bans fake voter-targeting content and protects election workers from AI-generated harassment. The FAIR Elections Act tackles tools like EagleAI that misuse public data to flag and challenge voters—sometimes unfairly targeting nursing home residents. It also empowers voters to sue the government if wrongly removed from rolls, updates federal voter registration rules, and mandates a GAO study on how databases might suppress votes. As AI-generated misinformation grows globally, this bill aims to shield democracy from digital deception. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
