Prohibit distributing deepfakes under the Nebraska Political Accountability and Disclosure Act

Summary

The bill makes it illegal to distribute synthetic media that falsely depicts a candidate or political party within 90 days of an election, unless the content carries a clear AI disclosure. It applies to individuals, corporations, committees and other entities, while carving out exemptions for news broadcasts, good‑faith efforts, and satire. A candidate harmed by such a deepfake could seek a court order to stop its publication.
