S 758 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Moving Americans Privacy Protection Act

This bill, S 758 (Moving Americans Privacy Protection Act), requires the removal of personally identifiable information (like Social Security numbers and passport details) from shipping manifests before they are made public. It directly affects shipping companies and government agencies handling shipment data, as they must ensure this information is scrubbed from manifests. The law adds two specific conditions under which such data cannot be disclosed: if the Treasury Secretary finds disclosure would threaten personal injury or property damage, or if the data is already exempt under federal privacy laws. The changes take effect 30 days after the bill becomes law.
