Status checked
Entry updated

Political ads created or distributed using AI would have to carry a clear disclosure label.

What it does

Amends Election Code to require qualified political advertisements created or distributed using AI to include clear and conspicuous disclosure. Provides for civil penalties.

Analyst read

SB 0150 had sponsors from both parties and proposed disclosure for political advertising generated substantially with AI. The Senate re-referred it to Assignments on April 11, 2025; the ILGA record shows no later committee passage or floor vote. Its proposed labeling rule is not operative law.
