State Representative Maureen Bauer of South Bend has unveiled her 2026 legislative agenda, focusing on public safety and digital protection.

Key proposals include House Bill 1182, which targets the growing threat of AI-generated “deepfake” sexual images, and House Bill 1310, designed to prevent domestic violence fatalities through better data sharing.

Bauer’s package also seeks to expand digital alerts for first responders and establish stricter safety standards for medical sonography.
