Justice Department defends group's right to sue over AI robocalls sent to New Hampshire voters

Full Article

The federal Justice Department is supporting the legal challenge against AI robocalls sent to New Hampshire voters that impersonated President Joe Biden's voice. The lawsuit was filed by the League of Women Voters against political consultant Steve Kramer and three companies involved in transmitting the calls. The companies argued that the robocalls did not violate the Voting Rights Act, but the Justice Department disagreed.

The robocalls in question were sent to New Hampshire voters, falsely suggesting that voting in the state's primary would prevent them from casting ballots in the November election. Kramer, who orchestrated the calls, faces criminal charges and a fine from the FCC. The Justice Department emphasized the importance of enforcing voting rights and standing up against deceptive tactics in political communications.
