The bill proposes amendments to various sections of the Arizona Revised Statutes, focusing on records confidentiality, particularly for public officials. It introduces the term "public official" into the statutes, defining it as a person elected or appointed to Congress, the legislature, a statewide office, or a county, city, town, or political subdivision office. The bill also changes the language regarding the dissemination of personal information on the internet, making it unlawful to make available the personal information of a public official if it poses an imminent and serious threat to their safety.

The bill further specifies that a person or entity in Arizona may not access a public official's actual residence address or license plate number but may access the city or town of residence. It removes the requirement for a law enforcement officer to provide a subpoena, court order, or search warrant to access records of the county recorder. Additionally, the bill updates the language from "world wide web" to "internet" and makes various changes to ensure that public officials' addresses are protected, allowing them to use a city or town of residence or a post office box or private mailbox address instead of their actual residence address in certain public documents.
