Modifying an exception to the Kansas open records act that authorizes certain individuals to have identifying information restricted from public access on public websites that identify home addresses or home ownership by providing that certain individuals who were employed for five or more years, certain elected officials and persons who reside at an address that is subject to restriction from public access may request to have such information restricted and removing an exception related to information or reports obtained and prepared by the office of the state bank commissioner.

HB 2460 amends Kansas's Open Records Act (KORA) to allow state legislators to restrict their home addresses and home ownership information from public websites. This specifically affects members of the Kansas legislature, who will now have the option to prevent this identifying information from being disclosed online. The bill adds a new exception to KORA's disclosure rules, requiring public agencies to withhold such details upon request by a legislator. This change applies only to information posted on public websites, not to other records held by government agencies. The bill is currently pending in the Judiciary Committee after introduction on January 15, 2026.
