MODERATE
The bill was amended to add a second sponsor and recommit it to the committee for further review. Substantively, the bill's section numbers were updated to reflect a new section title, and the definition of 'law enforcement agency' was expanded to include private investigators and security guards. Additionally, the text was updated to refer to 'captured plate data' instead of 'automatic license plate reader information' in several places to ensure consistency.
Scope change
The bill's scope regarding who is considered a law enforcement agency was expanded to include private investigators and licensed security guards, broadening the group subject to the new restrictions.
