AI Summary
This bill modifies Arizona's address confidentiality program, which allows individuals, such as victims of domestic violence or stalking, to shield their residential addresses from public records. Key changes include extending the confidentiality of voter registration records for participants in the address confidentiality program, even after their certification expires or if they pass away, ensuring that other household members' voter records also remain sealed. Additionally, the bill mandates criminal background checks for all individuals involved in administering the program, including state employees, application assistants, and volunteers, and clarifies that all records pertaining to program participants are confidential and only disclosable by court order. It also outlines procedures for when a participant withdraws from the program, requiring the unsealing of their voter registration records and the removal of their substitute mailing address.
