Margaret Konze for Myself Pembroke Lottery winners should be able to decline to have their information publicly available. I really can’t understand the rationale for blasting this out on the news. If they were trying to avoid financial obligations like child support or court judgments when this income is reported via their Social Security number anyone who had a right to garnish the money would be able to obtain that information and do so. But this bill is better than nothing. As someone who used the Attorney Generals address confidentiality program (ACP) until I moved out of the state and moved back years later, I would have never played the lottery knowing that if I won he would see me on the news or be able to Google me and see what town I lived in when I won. | Pembroke | Support | 744 | Feb 5, 2025 | |
