The bill amends W.S. 17-28-108(c) to allow the Secretary of State to release confidential information maintained by registered agents to county assessors and county treasurers, in addition to the existing provisions for court-ordered subpoenas and bona fide law enforcement agencies involved in criminal investigations. The specific language deleted from the current law is the phrase "or" before the new insertion, which expands the list of entities that can access this confidential information.

The bill does not specify the manner in which county assessors and county treasurers must request the information, nor does it include qualifiers regarding the purpose for which they may obtain the information. Additionally, there are no provisions included to ensure that county assessors and county treasurers maintain the confidentiality of the information received or to impose penalties for any breaches of confidentiality. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025.
