Bill overview
This bill strengthens protections for individuals with expunged criminal records by imposing restrictions on how these records can be used and disseminated. It increases penalties for wrongfully disclosing expunged records to private background check providers and requires them to ensure they only report information within the last 30 days and promptly delete expunged records. The bill also mandates that professional licensing boards redact references to expunged convictions in their records following expungement, aligning with previous court rulings.
