Improve the safety and security of Members of Congress, immediate family members of Members of Congress, and congressional staff.

Summary

Creates a privacy protection that stops the public posting and commercial sale or transfer of specified personal information for Members of Congress, certain congressional staff, former Members, and their immediate family/household members. Covered information includes home addresses, contact details, SSNs and driver’s license numbers, financial account numbers, vehicle identifiers, minor child identity and school/daycare information, precise non‑anonymized geolocation, travel routes, and other listed categories. Individuals must give written notice to federal agencies to mark information private; agencies and businesses generally must remove covered information from public sites within 72 hours of a request. Data brokers are prohibited from knowingly selling or buying such covered information. Limited exceptions apply (e.g., newsworthiness, voluntary posting, court order, GLBA Title V compliance), and the bill creates a private right of action to seek injunctive or declaratory relief for violations.

• Defines a broad set of "covered information" (home addresses, SSN/DL, financial accounts, vehicle IDs, minor child info, exact geolocation, travel routes, etc.).
• Requires written notice to federal agencies to mark records private; agencies and businesses must remove covered information from public sites within 72 hours of a valid request.
• Bans data brokers from knowingly selling, licensing, trading for consideration, or purchasing covered information for at‑risk individuals.
• Prohibits public posting and transfer of covered information after a written request, with enumerated exceptions (newsworthiness, voluntary posts, court orders, GLBA compliance, etc.).
• Allows third‑party access only by signed release, court order, GLBA Title V coverage, or confidentiality agreement.
• Creates a private right of action for injunctive or declaratory relief for violations.
• Permits legislative officers to submit consolidated notices on behalf of Members and designated employees, simplifying compliance for officials.
• Preserves press reporting and other lawful disclosures while directing courts to broadly protect covered information.
• Could prompt operational changes at federal agencies, websites, and data brokers and trigger legal challenges over scope and free‑speech limits.
