The law, introduced by Democratic Senator Erin Maye Quade after a Minnesota man used an app to undress over 80 women, allows victims to sue for damages including punitive damages and enables the attorney general to impose fines up to $500,000 per fake AI nude. Gov. Tim Walz is expected to sign the law, with enforcement starting in August 2026.
