Very urgent. - David From: "Juliana Smith" Date: 18 May 2002 10:10:26 -0600 I am currently attending the NGS Conference in Milwaukee and we have received word that California is moving forward quickly in its move to close access to the index of birth and death records and will be meeting Monday morning at 9:30 am for a hearing on the bill. I am copying a message below with details of the legislation and contact information for California legislators form the Appropriation Committee. Please let our voices be heard on this issue. If closed, it will set a precedent and it is likely that other states will follow suit. It is particularly important that California voters voice their opinions. Please pass this important message on to other lists as well. With best wishes, Juliana Smith Editor, Ancestry Daily News editor@ancestry-inc.com -------- Original Message -------- Subject: LEG MAY 17, 2002 REPORT Date: Fri, 17 May 2002 14:13:55 -0700 From: Iris Jones <ijones@accessbee.com> MAY 17, 2002 - SENATE BILL 1614 UPDATE While I subscribe the SB1614, since my last report on May 15, 2002, I have checked the activity daily. As of late last night there was no change. This morning I find that the bill has been scheduled to be heard before the Appropriations Committee at 9:30 a.m. on Monday, May 20, 2002. There are also new amendments. The bill requires the comprehensive index of birth and death record indexes be kept confidential. It will be available to some government agencies, but the information is require to maintain confidentiality. The copies of Indexes sold prior to 31 December to 3rd parties will require that the information remain confidential under penalty of law. It requires the State Registrar to establish a separate noncomprehensive electronic indices which will be electronically available to county recorders. But the public may only view these noncomprehensive indexes at the State or county on computer terminals designated for this purpose. Obviously, between now and 9:30 a.m. on Monday morning leaves little time for action. I am going to send my letter of objections to the author, the Governor and members of the Appropriation Committee who have fax Email numbers available.
