The bill establishes a new section, 287.139, in the Florida Statutes, which defines "media reliability and bias monitor" and sets forth restrictions on agency contracts with such monitors. It prohibits agencies from entering into contracts with media reliability and bias monitors or providing any form of support to them, except for nondiscretionary actions required by law. Additionally, agencies are barred from accepting bids or proposals for advertising and marketing services unless the contractor certifies compliance with this section. The bill also mandates that contractors must certify they do not use the services of a media reliability and bias monitor before any contract extension, renewal, or modification.

The bill outlines specific exclusions from these restrictions, allowing contractors that aggregate news articles or provide analytical information on advertisement performance to continue their services without being classified as media reliability and bias monitors. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
