SF 3834 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Expand personal information protections for judicial officials to state legislators

SF 3834 expands Minnesota's data privacy protections to include current and former state legislators, who were previously excluded. The bill defines "covered officials" to explicitly include legislators and protects specific personal information like residential addresses, phone numbers, children's names, and school details from public posting. It requires businesses or government entities to remove such protected information within 30 days upon a written request from a covered official, with legal remedies available for noncompliance. Additionally, the bill creates a legislative task force to study broader privacy protections for all Minnesota government officials, including potential improvements to current laws.
