S 5136 United States Senate · 119th Congress

Promoting Authenticity with Influencer Disclaimers Act

This bill requires political committees to clearly label online content they pay for, ensuring viewers know the post was funded by a political group. The law applies to advertisements and messages posted on websites, apps, or social media by third parties, but excludes content on a committee's own site or posts by regular employees using their own accounts. Starting in 2027, these labels must be easy to read in videos and text or clearly spoken in audio, and committees must inform the creators of this requirement when making payments. The Federal Election Commission will create specific rules to enforce these standards by that date.
