Comment by Lindsey Williams
Pennsylvania State Senator (D-Allegheny)
Voters deserve to know when images and videos that they are viewing have been manipulated by artificial intelligence. Clear disclosure of the use of AI tools can help protect our elections from misinformation and misrepresentation. Transparency and truth in political advertising is another key step in restoring the public's faith in our government.AI Verified source (2026)

The quote directly supports disclosure of AI use in political ads: it says voters should know when political images/videos are AI-manipulated and praises clear disclosure and transparency in political advertising. That is effectively support for requiring disclosure of AI-generated political advertising.

The quote clearly favors disclosure: it says "Voters deserve to know" when content is manipulated by AI and that "Clear disclosure of the use of AI tools" helps protect elections and improve "transparency and truth in political advertising."

I could not load the JS-gated pasenate URL directly, but a reliable secondary source, Chester County Press, published an April 1, 2026 article that reproduces the passage verbatim and attributes it to State Sen. Lindsey M. Williams; line 50 contains the exact three sentences you provided. That is sufficient to confirm the quote is real, verbatim, and correctly attributed.

Checked author attribution, year, relevance, vote alignment, and source. The pasenate.com source_url returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but web search confirmed the quote verbatim from that official PA Senate Democrats release (March 17, 2026): Sen. Lindsey Williams said "Voters deserve to know when images and videos that they are viewing have been manipulated by artificial intelligence. Clear disclosure of the use of AI tools can help protect our elections from misinformation and misrepresentation. Transparency and truth in political advertising is another key step in restoring the public's faith in our government." Attribution to Lindsey Williams (PA State Senator, D-Allegheny) is correct; year 2026 is current and relevant. Vote "for" the statement "Mandate disclosure of AI-generated political advertising" aligns directly with her legislation requiring such disclosure. Source is the primary official Senate page.
