Makes it a civil and criminal offense to create or spread materially false information about federal elections within 60 days of covered elections if done with the intent to stop or delay people from voting, including false content produced with artificial intelligence. Gives the Attorney General authority to correct such misinformation when state or local officials do not act, requires periodic public reports to Congress about deceptive practices, expands who counts as an aggrieved person for voter-intimidation protections, and clarifies that ballot processing and tabulation activities are covered by the National Voter Registration Act. The bill creates a private right of action, adds criminal penalties (fine and/or up to 1 year imprisonment), directs the Sentencing Commission to review guidelines, and authorizes funds for DOJ activities to implement the law.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
