What this law does
Drafted with AI from the cited sources under the direction of UnGovr staff. UnGovr holds editorial responsibility for this page.
Passed by the full House of Representatives on March 25, 2026. The bill would have barred a deployer, defined to include any person, partnership, corporation, or governmental entity, from knowingly making a social AI companion available to a minor, and would have required a deployer to implement reasonable measures to prevent minor access and to adopt a protocol for a social AI companion to respond to a user's expressions of suicidal ideation by referring the user to a crisis service.
A violation would have carried an injunction, disgorgement of profits, and a civil penalty of up to Two Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($2,500.00) per violation or Seven Thousand Five Hundred Dollars ($7,500.00) per intentional violation, recovered by the Attorney General. The engrossed bill's own Senate-passage line was never completed, and the measure died at the Legislature's 2026 adjournment without a Senate floor vote.
