The bill, titled the Fraudulent Artificial Intelligence Regulations (FAIR) Elections Act of 2026, seeks to safeguard election integrity by addressing the misuse of artificial intelligence. It specifically prohibits the knowing distribution of false AI-generated election media , defined as AI-produced content with materially false information about election procedures or voter eligibility, or false depictions of election officials. This prohibition applies if the intent is to impede voting or intimidate officials, though bona fide news organizations are exempt if they clearly disclose the falsity. Furthermore, the legislation amends the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 to strengthen protections against improper voter roll purges. States are prohibited from removing names from official voter lists or challenging eligibility unless based on verified source information . This information must come from governmental entities performing official duties and be approved by the Attorney General, in consultation with the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the Election Assistance Commission. Approved data sources must contain specific qualifying data sets for matching, be updated monthly, and not be obtained illegally. The bill also restricts the Federal Government from comparing its data with state or local government information for the purpose of determining voter eligibility, granting a private right of action for violations. Finally, it mandates that the Comptroller General of the United States conduct a study on the effects of using federal databases, such as the SAVE system, for voter roll removals, examining potential voter suppression, accuracy, and instances of incorrect removals.
