SIGN NOW: Congress must protect voters from deceptive AI >>

John, we’re living in a time where anti-voter actors can make fiction appear real with artificial intelligence (AI).

From hyper-realistic but entirely fake “deepfake” videos spreading disinformation about candidates [1] to AI-generated robocalls sowing confusion among voters [2], the abuse of this new technology could be disastrous for our democracy.

But John, here’s the good news: Just this year, Common Cause members like you helped pass legislation protecting voters from deceptive AI advertising in states like New York and Oregon – and with the bipartisan Protect Elections From Deceptive AI Act, we can take these wins nationwide.

Add your name to tell Congress: We must push back against deceptive AI in our elections. Pass the Protect Elections From Deceptive AI Act NOW >>

SIGN THE PETITION

As AI technology advances, it’s only gotten easier for bad actors to create convincing but entirely false content. These manipulative tactics can undermine the integrity of our elections, leaving voters vulnerable to disinformation and eroding trust in the democratic process.

But the Protect Elections From Deceptive AI Act will make all the difference for voters – banning misleading AI-generated audio, image, or video advertisements that aim to influence our elections, and empowering candidates to take swift action against deceptive content. [3]

It’ll help ensure voters can make decisions based on the truth – NOT manipulated, partisan falsehoods. But with less than 100 days until Election Day, we must finish the job now.

Sign the petition: We can't continue allowing anti-voter partisans to deceive voters with AI. Pass the Protect Elections From Deceptive AI Act to protect voters this fall >>

I hope you’ll take action today, John.

Thanks for all you do,

Ishan Mehta, Media & Democracy Program Director
and the team at Common Cause
