Digital Integrity in Democracy Act

The Digital Integrity in Democracy Act (S 4977) amends Section 230 of the Communications Act to create a new exception: social media platforms with at least 25 million U.S. monthly users must remove *objectively false information* about election timing, location, voter eligibility, or penalties if notified. Platforms must delete such content within 24 hours on election days or 48 hours otherwise, and provide written confirmation of removal. Violations allow the Attorney General, state officials, or candidates to sue for $50,000 per item of unremoved false information. The law explicitly excludes political speech about candidates, officeholders, or parties from this definition.
