SB 281 Original	2022 Regular Session	Bernard
Present law provides that the registrar of voters, Department of State, and clerk of court cannot
disclose the name and address of a law enforcement officer, other than on a general list, if they have
received certification from the officer's employing agency that the officer is engaging in hazardous
activities to the extent that it is necessary for his name and address to be kept confidential.
Proposed law creates an exception to present law to allow the disclosure of the name and address
of an officer otherwise entitled to confidentiality who has qualified as a candidate for office.
Effective August 1, 2022.
