Revises provisions governing the confidentiality of the personal information of certain persons. (BDR 20-966)

SB 273 expands eligibility for confidential handling of personal information in government records and driver's license addresses. It adds civilian employees who support law enforcement agencies and firefighters (including retired) to the list of people who can request court orders to keep their personal data confidential in county records, and allows them to request alternate addresses on driver's licenses. Previously, only specific roles like judges, police officers, and child welfare workers had this right. The bill directly affects these newly included public safety and support staff members by giving them the same privacy protections as existing covered groups.
