Polygraph law; revise to authorize use of computer voice stress analyzer examination as option to standard polygraph.

HB 1603 would rename Mississippi's "Polygraph Examiners Law" to include computer voice stress analyzers (CVSA), authorizing licensed examiners to use CVSA as an alternative to standard polygraph tests for verifying truthfulness or detecting deception. The bill updates licensing requirements, examiner qualifications, and board oversight to cover both polygraph and CVSA methods, defining CVSA as a device measuring voice frequency changes. It directly affects licensed examiners and testing facilities in Mississippi by expanding approved tools for deception detection. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and was never enacted.
