Tennessee Deepfakes law summary
Coverage in this area is still under review.
Rooted Reality reviewed Tennessee General Assembly materials on SB 1624/HB 1513 and SB 2321/HB 2214 — both deepfake-elections bill pairs. Public trackers indicated an enacted measure in March 2026, but we couldn't verify it against a stable Tennessee primary source on the May 5, 2026 review. No enforceable rule shows on this card today.

Why this status
Coverage in this area is still under review.
What this means
- Tennessee has no verified state-level deepfake rule on this card today, even though public reporting points to a March 2026 enactment of one of the named bill pairs. Treat the gap as a verification gap, not a finding about Tennessee's actual posture.
- If one of the SB 1624/HB 1513 or SB 2321/HB 2214 pairs is in fact enacted, the next verified review will move this card to a colored status and surface the enacted scope and effective date.
- Federal protections (intimate-image laws, election-fraud statutes, CSAM rules) and a depicted person's existing civil claims still apply regardless of Tennessee's state-level posture.
What to do next
- Open SB 1624, HB 1513, SB 2321, and HB 2214 on the Tennessee General Assembly's bill-tracking site — enacted text and the public-chapter number land there first.
- For content concerns today, the platform's own policy and federal complaint paths (FBI IC3 for fraud, NCMEC for content involving minors) are the active levers.
