Bill Summary

An act to amend Sections 2166.5, 12105.5, and 12108 of, and to add Section 2166.8 to, the Elections Code, to amend Sections 6215 and 6215.2 of, and to amend the heading of Chapter 3.2 (commencing with Section 6215) of Division 7 of Title 1 of, the Government Code, relating to address confidentiality, and declaring the urgency thereof, to take effect immediately.

AI Summary

This bill would expand the existing Address Confidentiality for Reproductive Health Care Service Providers, Employees, Volunteers, and Patients program to include other individuals who face threats of violence or harassment from the public because of their work for a public entity, such as public health officers, election workers, and code enforcement officers. The bill would require an individual seeking confidentiality to apply in person and meet with a counselor. The bill would also create a similar confidential voter status program for these qualified workers who face life-threatening circumstances. Additionally, the bill would eliminate the requirement to post the names of precinct board members, while still requiring the posting of their political party affiliation. The bill includes provisions to address state-mandated local program costs.
