1. What’s New?
The big news last week was three bills passing out of a state chamber.
In Vermont, Representative Priestley’s H.121 unanimously passed the House on March 22. As we noted last week, this general consumer data privacy bill is one to watch as it contains a private right of action with statutory damages. The bill also includes Connecticut-style health and children’s privacy provisions. Meanwhile, the Vermont Senate passed S.289 on March 20. That bill is an Age-Appropriate Design Code Act (AADC) variant although it is much different than the law California passed.
