As we move closer to the end of many states’ legislative sessions, a number of comprehensive privacy law proposals continue to work their way through the legislative process. Since our last update, Nebraska became the sixteenth state to enact a comprehensive privacy law, with Governor Jim Pillen approving the Nebraska Data Privacy Act on April 17. Elsewhere, the Maryland Online Data Privacy Act remains under review by Governor Wes Moore, while bills in Vermont and Minnesota continue to work their way through the committee process. Finally, the Maine and Wisconsin legislative sessions adjourned, bringing a close to efforts to pass comprehensive privacy legislation in those states, at least for this year.
