NAB Statement on Committee Markup and Passage of the NO FAKES Act

Washington, D.C. � The following statement can be attributed to NAB President and CEO Curtis LeGeyt:

�NAB applauds the Senate Judiciary Committee for advancing the bipartisan NO FAKES Act. Local broadcasters work every day to earn the trust of their communities, and unauthorized AI-generated replicas undermine that trust by enabling deception and the misuse of voices and likenesses of trusted journalists and on-air personalities. This legislation establishes important safeguards against harmful deepfakes while supporting responsible innovation and respecting the First Amendment. We thank Chairman Grassley, Ranking Member Durbin and Senators Blackburn, Coons, Tillis and Klobuchar for their leadership and look forward to working with Congress to advance this bipartisan legislation.�
