What this law does

Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.

This measure did not pass and binds nobody; what follows is what it would have required. Would have amended Section 23-15-897 to require a qualified political advertisement, defined to include search engine marketing, display, video and native advertising involving a candidate, election or ballot question that was generated in whole or in part with artificial intelligence, to carry a clear and conspicuous disclosure of the AI use, with format-specific rules for text, audio and video.

Passed the Senate 52-0 on February 10, 2026, and died in the House Accountability, Efficiency, Transparency Committee on March 3, 2026, contrary to a secondary tracker's claim that the bill had been enacted; the Mississippi Legislature's own bill-history record confirms the committee death and shows no later-stage bill text.
