H Chapter 111, Acts, Regular Session, 2026

Jun 29, 2026

Summary

The law lets judges, prosecutors, law‑enforcement officers, elected officials, campaign treasurers and their household family members ask the agency that publishes a public record to remove or black out their home address, personal phone numbers, or name‑address pairing. Agencies must comply and may be sued if they do not, though many government and legal disclosures are still allowed. Requesters must sign a statement that redaction could cause them to miss legal, promotional, or official notices.
