AI Summary
This bill prohibits the Governor or a Mayor from suspending requests for public records or vital statistics during a declared state of emergency. However, it allows for a reasonable delay in an agency's response to a request as a result of extenuating circumstances, but agencies cannot reject a request at any time, regardless of whether an emergency has been declared. The bill also amends existing law to clarify that the Governor or a Mayor can suspend certain laws during an emergency, but this exception does not apply to the provisions related to public records and vital statistics requests.
