Adrian, MI – State Representative Bronna Kahle voted in support of a bipartisan plan strengthening protections for survivors of domestic abuse, sexual assault, human trafficking and stalking in Michigan.
The measures approved by the House are part of a proposal allowing survivors to keep their addresses private in public databases – making it more difficult for their perpetrators to discover where they live.
The address confidentiality plan would give participants a substitute address – usually a post office box – to use in place of their physical home address. The substitute address could be used wherever an address is required by a local government, school, court or other public agency. Mail sent to the substitute address would then be forwarded to the participant’s actual address by the state.
Rep. Kahle was on a recent 7:40 am break on 103.9fm WLEN…
With Kahle’s support, the House today overwhelmingly approved Senate Bills 70-76. Other measures in the package are House Bills 5054-58.
Kahle said she will fight for the measures to be finalized and sent to the governor for her consideration by the end of the month.
