Bill Summary

Includes e-mail addresses in list of confidential items to be redacted from public records under OPRA.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Open Public Records Act (OPRA) in New Jersey to include email addresses in the list of information that can be redacted, meaning kept private, from public records. Specifically, it adds "e-mail address" to the existing list of personal identifiers such as social security numbers, credit card numbers, unlisted telephone numbers, and driver license numbers that can be removed from documents before they are released to the public. This change aims to protect individuals' private information from being disclosed in public records, with certain exceptions for government agencies and child support enforcement.
