Bill Summary

TNC partners; requirements and background screening. Changes the requirements for background screening of a transportation network company (TNC) partner to specify that background checks are not to be limited to a specific period of time, except as required by law, and shall include all addresses at which such TNC partner has resided since the age of 18. The bill also changes the entity by which persons conducting background checks for TNC partners are required to be accredited to the Professional Background Screening Association.

AI Summary

This bill modifies the requirements for background checks for transportation network company (TNC) partners, which are individuals who drive for TNCs like Uber or Lyft. Specifically, it mandates that these background checks must not be limited to a specific time period and must include all addresses where the TNC partner has lived since turning 18. Furthermore, the bill introduces a new disqualification: anyone who has served any part of a sentence for certain offenses within the last seven years will be ineligible to be a TNC partner, whereas current law only disqualifies individuals based on convictions or guilty pleas within that timeframe.
