Expand List of Petitioners for Protection Order

Summary

The bill expands who can ask a court for an extreme risk protection order to include educators, health‑care providers and any entity that employs them, such as school districts and hospitals. These new petitioners may share limited health information needed for the case and are shielded from liability when acting in good faith. The change is intended to improve public safety by allowing earlier intervention in violent‑risk situations.
