Senate Bill 390 amends provisions of the Tax Code relating to information that identifies the home addresses of specified individuals, to make such information confidential if it pertains to a federal criminal investigator, or a police officer or inspector of the U.S. Federal Protective Service, and the investigator, officer, or inspector chooses to restrict public access. The bill amends the Government Code to make the home address of such a federal official confidential when held by another governmental body, along with the individual's home telephone number, social security number, and information on the existence of family members, if the investigator, officer, or inspector chooses to restrict access and notifies the governmental body. Other changes in the bill update statutory references to certain federal agents, officers, and personnel to clarify their law enforcement status and authority, including their authority at a border patrol traffic check point or an overland port of entry from Mexico.
