Ask a Pol asks:
“Do you think we’ll see any Senate action on deepfakes ahead of the election now we’re in the midst?”
Key Kaine:
“Pretty nervous about this,” Kaine told Ask a Pol. “Because of Biden robocall, the fake Biden robocall. I haven’t heard discussion of Senate action about it. But I think all of us paid a lot of attention to that, and we have members who’ve been warning about it for a while.”
