This bill exempts victims of human trafficking or domestic abuse from a requirement to have their clemency applications published in newspapers. To qualify for this exemption, victims must submit an affidavit stating they are a trafficking or domestic abuse victim whose safety is at risk if their information is published, along with supporting affidavits from two professionals (such as law enforcement, prosecutors, mental health professionals, or social workers) confirming the victim status and safety concerns.
The amendment added a requirement that applicants demonstrate their safety is at risk if personal information is published, supported by two professionals' affidavits confirming this safety concern.
The amendment removed legislative formatting markers and added official enrollment signatures and certification pages required for the bill's final passage.
