Subsection (a) is a non-binding sense of Congress that AI-enabled financial crime by adversarial actors poses a significant national and economic security risk. Subsection (b) requires the Secretaries of Treasury, Homeland Security, and Commerce — in consultation with six other senior officials — to jointly submit to Congress an initial report within 180 days, and annually thereafter, covering interagency defensive policies, currently available resources, and additional resource needs. Reports must address deepfakes, voice cloning, foreign election interference, synthetic identities, market-disrupting false signals, and overall digital fraud. Subsection (c) requires the same three secretaries to submit a follow-on set of legislative recommendations and best practices within 90 days of each report.
The bill imposes obligations exclusively on federal executive-branch officials; no private-sector compliance duties are created. There are no definitions, no penalties, and no enforcement provisions.
