House Bill 1632

House Author:  Fletcher

Effective:  6-14-13

Senate Sponsor:  Paxton


            House Bill 1632 amends the Election Code to make confidential and exempt from disclosure under state public information law the residence address and date of birth that a peace officer, county jailer, security officer, or employee of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice or a prosecutor's office furnishes on a voter registration application.  Previous law exempted the residence address of a federal or state judge from disclosure under public information law.  The bill further exempts from that law such a judge's date of birth.  The bill revises the provisions describing the evidence an exempted individual is required to provide to verify the individual's exempt status.
