Incorporating external definitions by reference creates uncertainty and can result in state law being altered without legislative action.
While aimed at protecting confidentiality, this proposal is overly restrictive and removes practical mechanismsβsuch as consentβthat allow individuals to share their own information when appropriate. It creates inefficiencies by requiring duplicate background checks and limiting information sharing even in legitimate employment contexts. Privacy protections should be balanced with practicality and the individualβs right to control their own information.
