No election AI lawFederal TCPA on AI calls1 political AI law
Wyoming has no AI or deepfake law for political ads, and its old ban on automated recorded-message calls for political campaigns (W.S. 6-6-104) was held unconstitutional in 2018, so federal TCPA rules are what govern AI and prerecorded campaign calls there.

Political ads and deepfakes
Does Wyoming regulate AI in political ads?
No. As of October 5, 2026, Wyoming has no state law that specifically regulates artificial intelligence or deepfakes in political ads or election communications. Wyoming has not enacted any law on AI, deepfakes, or synthetic media in political communications as of October 2026. SF0051 (2024), which would have required disclosure on misleading synthetic media and made malicious election deepfakes a misdemeanor, passed the Senate but died in a House committee. No comparable bill was filed in the 2025 general session or the 2026 budget session. The 2026 deepfake law that did pass (HB0102) covers sexual images of minors, not elections.
No AI disclaimer is required by Wyoming statute. Ads still need Wyoming's standard paid-for-by disclosures, and a deepfake that defames a candidate or misleads voters about how to vote can still create liability under general law and federal rules. If your ad also runs in a neighboring state's media market, that state's AI law can apply.
Bills to watch
SF0051 (2024): Unlawful dissemination of misleading synthetic media (would have created W.S. 40-30-201: clear disclosure on synthetic media, civil suits with at least $1,000 exemplary damages, AG enforcement, and a misdemeanor up to 6 months and $750 for malicious use to influence an election). Failed: passed Senate Feb. 2024; died in House committee March 2024
For campaigns and consultants
Before an AI ad runs in Wyoming
No Wyoming statute requires an AI label on political ads, but avoid deceptive deepfakes of opponents: defamation and federal fraud rules still apply.
W.S. 6-6-104 still appears in the printed code, but a federal court held it unconstitutional in Victory Processing, LLC v. Michael (D. Wyo. 2018); do not rely on old guidance that political robocalls are a Wyoming crime.
Federal TCPA consent rules still govern prerecorded and AI-voice calls to cell phones, and the FCC treats AI voices as artificial voices.
Watch for a renewed synthetic media bill; SF0051 passed the Senate in 2024 and no election AI bill was filed in 2025 or 2026.
AI voice calls and texts
Can a campaign use AI voice calls in Wyoming?
Wyoming has no AI-specific rule for political calls. W.S. 6-6-104 still reads as a ban on using an automated system that dials numbers and plays recorded messages for "promoting or any other use related to a political campaign" (and for sales, soliciting information, and gathering data), punishable as a misdemeanor up to six months and $750. But in Victory Processing, LLC v. Michael, 333 F. Supp. 3d 1263 (D. Wyo. Aug. 6, 2018), the federal court held the whole statute, as written, a content-based restriction that fails strict scrutiny and is unconstitutional, granting summary judgment to the robocall vendor against the Attorney General. The state did not appeal that we found, and the legislature has not repealed or rewritten the section. Federal TCPA and FCC rules on artificial and AI voices still apply.

Court challenges
Struck down: Victory Processing, LLC v. Michael, 333 F. Supp. 3d 1263 (D. Wyo. 2018) (No. 2:17-cv-109-ABJ, Judge Alan B. Johnson), decided Aug. 6, 2018. A political robocall and survey vendor sued the Attorney General pre-enforcement. The court held W.S. 6-6-104 content-based on its face because it bans calls by purpose (sales, information, data gathering, political), found residential privacy only a substantial (not compelling) interest under Tenth Circuit law, and found the ban not narrowly tailored because it completely bars political robocalls while commercial calls get exceptions. It concluded the statute "as written, does not survive strict scrutiny and is therefore unconstitutional" and granted the plaintiffs' summary judgment motion, which sought prospective injunctive relief. We found no Tenth Circuit appeal; the district docket closed Aug. 6, 2018. The ruling follows the same line as Cahaly v. Larosa (4th Cir. 2015, South Carolina), Gresham v. Rutledge (E.D. Ark. 2016, Arkansas), and Victory Processing v. Fox (9th Cir. 2019, Montana).
Notes
The statute text remains in the compiled Wyoming Statutes with no history note of amendment. Prohibited purposes are: offering goods or services for sale; conveying information on goods or services in soliciting sales; soliciting information; gathering data and statistics; or promoting or any other use related to a political campaign. Status is listed as enjoined because a final federal judgment held the whole section unconstitutional, though it has not been repealed.

Federal layer
Federal rules that apply in Wyoming
At the federal level, the binding rules that hit AI in campaigns today are the TCPA and FCC robocall rules, not any AI-specific election law. Since February 2024 the FCC treats AI-generated voices as "artificial" voices, so AI voice calls to cell phones need prior express consent (political calls included), AI or prerecorded political calls to landlines are limited to three per 30 days without consent, and every such message must identify the caller, give a callback number and offer an opt-out. The FEC says its existing fraudulent misrepresentation ban covers AI, but it has had no quorum since April 2025 and cannot enforce. Proposed FCC rules on AI disclosure in broadcast political ads and in AI calls were never adopted, and no federal AI political ad disclaimer bill has passed. Federal efforts to preempt state AI laws (a 2025 moratorium the Senate struck 99 to 1, and Executive Order 14365) have not displaced any state election or robocall law as of October 2026.

Under federal law, the FCC ruled in February 2024 that AI-generated voices are "artificial" voices under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, so prerecorded or AI voice calls to cell phones need prior express consent, and every such call must identify the caller at the start.
