This act is known and may be cited as the "Transparency for Deepfakes in Political Advertising Act." [...] Such communication, when in audio form, if considered a deepfake [...] impersonating a candidate for elected office engaging in speech in which the candidate did not in fact engage, shall clearly state at the beginning and at the end of the communication: This communication contains fake content impersonating speech that did not occur.
