HB 4451 corrects a typographical error in the short title of the Public Official Safety and Privacy Act, changing "the the Public Official Safety and Privacy Act" to "the Public Official Safety and Privacy Act" in Section 1. This is a purely administrative update to the law's citation format with no changes to actual protections or requirements. The bill does not affect any policies, regulations, or individuals' rights. It is a routine technical correction to ensure the law's title is accurately referenced in legal documents.
