Summary

California Attorney General Rob Bonta led a coalition of 18 attorneys general and state agencies in opposing the SECURE Data Act, a proposed federal data privacy bill. The coalition argues that the federal legislation would preempt and weaken California's existing landmark privacy law, reducing protections for citizens and hampering the state's ability to safeguard consumer privacy. The letter urges Congress to reject the bill.
