U.S. Rep new FCC chair pen pal.

Congressman Joe Morelle (D-NY) supports the FCC’s proposed rule requiring disclosure of AI-generated content in political ads. In a letter to FCC Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel, Morelle emphasized the risks of AI misuse to manipulate voters, citing incidents like a deepfake audio of Martin Luther King Jr. endorsing a candidate. He advocates for regulations to ensure transparency in political ads, with 2024 ad spending expected to exceed $12 billion. Morelle called for a comprehensive government strategy to combat AI-driven disinformation in elections. Other House Democrats, including Frank Pallone, Jr. and Doris Matsui, have also voiced support for this rulemaking.
