Why this status

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.

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 verify 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.
