Summary

The bill gives every person a property right in their likeness—including image, voice and other identifying traits—and makes that right transferable, licensable and inheritable for 50 years after death. It forces anyone who creates, distributes, or profits from an AI‑generated digital replica of a person’s likeness to obtain the person’s written consent. The law also provides a private right of action with damages and injunctive relief for violations.
