Protect Disability Data Privacy
HB 1316 protects the privacy, dignity, and civil rights of autistic people by limiting how autism-related data is collected, used, and shared by state agencies. This bill prevents unnecessary data scraping, restricts disclosure, and ensures strong safeguards around deeply personal information. People with disabilities deserve privacy, autonomy, and protection from misuse of their data. Legislators need to hear that these protections matter.
Title: restricting the collection and disclosure of autism-related data by state agencies.
