Bill > SB327

This bill prohibits state agency employees, including those in district and magistrate courts, from disclosing sensitive personal information, such as an individual's status as a public assistance recipient or their sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, immigration status, national origin, or religion, except in limited circumstances like when necessary for the agency's functions, required by a court order or subpoena, or with the individual's written consent. It also amends existing law to further restrict the disclosure of personal information from motor vehicle records, such as limiting access to law enforcement agencies, courts, and certain other authorized entities. The bill aims to enhance privacy protections for sensitive personal information held by state agencies.
