## Finding (2026-09-25)

**The number exists. The introduced print does not. An earlier office draft does.**

Congress.gov has S. 5471, sponsor Coons, introduced 2026-09-23, referred to Commerce. The text pane says the text is not available yet. GovInfo has no `BILLS-119s5471is`.

The Lankford PDF is SLC draft MUR26493. The file was created 2026-09-18, five days before the Congress.gov introduction. The face still says `S. ll`, and the date and committee lines are blank. It is not the introduced print.

On that draft:

- Long title matches the Congress.gov long title: a bill to require disclosure of certain information relating to artificial intelligence systems, and for other purposes
- Sponsors printed: Mr. Coons (for himself, Mrs. Britt, Mr. Schatz, and Mr. Lankford)
- Short title in section 1: “AI Systems Transparency Act”
- Section 3: guidelines for model versioning and other designations
- Section 4: model disclosure mandates for developers
- Section 5: mandatory disclosures for covered deployers
- Section 6: enforcement. “Federal Trade Commission” appears in the draft

The long title and the sponsor set line up with S. 5471. That does not prove the introduced text is this 18 September draft. Mill the GovInfo HTML when it exists. If it differs, the print wins.

## When the IS HTML appears

Mill `BILLS-119s5471is`. This card stays as the record of the unnumbered draft that circulated first.
