Bill: Senate Version of Honest Ads Act
Russians bought online political ads designed to influence the 2016 election and divide Americans; the content and purchaser(s) of those online advertisements are a mystery to the public because of outdated laws that have failed to keep up with evolving technology. The Honest Ads Act would help prevent foreign actors from influencing our elections by ensuring that political ads sold online have the same transparency and disclosure requirements as ads sold on TV, radio, and satellite.
