What’s in it

AI summary The Secretary of State manages a program that helps people hide their home addresses if they are in danger from abuse or stalking. This bill would allow participants to use a shelter's contact information instead of the shelter's physical address. It also lets the state cancel a person's protection if they pass away and allows the state to hold a person's mail for a certain number of days if they ask.¹
