AI Summary
This bill expands existing personal information protections, which previously applied only to judicial officials, to now include current and former members of the Minnesota legislature, redefining "judicial official" to "covered official" for this purpose. It also establishes a legislative task force composed of twelve members, including representatives from the legislative branch, state agencies, and judicial system, to study and analyze the need for enhanced privacy protections for all Minnesota government officials and to explore ways to administer these protections effectively. This task force is required to submit a report with its findings and any recommended legislative changes by January 15, 2027, and a specific amount of money is appropriated from the general fund to support its work.
