California Public Records Act: protects personal information of elected or appointed officials.

AB 343 amends the California Public Records Act to protect personal information of elected or appointed officials from disclosure. It defines "elected or appointed official" to include various positions such as state constitutional officers, legislators, judges, and law enforcement officials. The act emphasizes the need to safeguard officials and their families from harassment or targeted violence, outweighing the public's interest in disclosure.
