Bill overview
The Moving Americans Privacy Protection Act aims to safeguard personal information on shipping manifests entering the United States. Specifically, it requires the Department of the Treasury to remove sensitive data like Social Security numbers and passport numbers from these manifests before they are made publicly available. The bill does this to reduce the risk of harm or damage that could result from the disclosure of this information. It establishes a process for the Secretary of the Treasury to determine when disclosure is not appropriate.
