Cell location information; require wireless service providers to disclose to law enforcement under certain circumstances.

Summary

The bill would force wireless providers to share the location of a user's phone with law‑enforcement agencies or public‑safety answering points when they request it for an emergency call or a situation that could cause death or serious injury. It also lets carriers set up voluntary disclosure rules, shields them from lawsuits if they act in good faith, and orders the state public‑safety department to keep a list of carrier contact information. The measure failed to pass.
