Democracy Campaign Organizer at Public Citizen; leads state-level legislative work on AI regulation including political deepfake disclosure laws
Normalizing the use of AI in our media ecosystem broadly, but certainly in our political information system, absolutely carries the risk of undermining trust and belief and the trust that is so critical in our information and our media ecosystem.

Verified via web search. Ilana Beller (Public Citizen's Democracy Campaign Organizer leading state-level AI/deepfake legislative work) said this in March 2026 coverage of AI deepfakes in US midterm campaigns. Source URL returned 403 to WebFetch but multiple syndicated outlets (WKZO, WTAQ, SRN News, Honolulu Star-Advertiser) confirm the verbatim quote. The "for" vote on "Mandate disclosure of AI-generated political advertising" aligns directly with Beller's professional role leading Public Citizen's deepfake disclosure law work in 30 states and her stated concern about normalizing AI in political information undermining trust. Year 2026 is current.
