S.B. No. 2067 proposes an amendment to the Code of Criminal Procedure regarding the disclosure of information related to the next of kin of deceased individuals. The bill introduces a new subsection (d) to Section 11 of Article 49.25, which states that information about a decedent's next of kin is exempt from public disclosure as mandated by Chapter 552 of the Government Code. However, this information can still be disclosed under subpoena or by other legal authority.

The bill specifies that the changes will apply to requests for information received by governmental bodies or public information officers on or after the effective date of the Act. Requests made prior to this date will be governed by the existing law. The Act is set to take effect immediately if it receives a two-thirds majority vote from both houses of the legislature; otherwise, it will take effect on September 1, 2025.
