| Date Introduced: March 01, 2022 |
| It is enacted by the General Assembly as follows: |
| SECTION 1. Section 6-13.1-29 of the General Laws in Chapter 6-13.1 entitled "Deceptive |
| Trade Practices" is hereby amended to read as follows: |
| 6-13.1-29. Furnishing of credit reports. |
| No credit bureau doing business in this state shall use all or part of a consumer's social |
| security number as the sole factor when determining whether a credit report in its files matches the |
| identity of a person who is the subject of a credit inquiry from a user of credit reports. When a |
| social security number is used as a factor, a credit bureau may disclose a credit report in its files to |
| an inquiring user of credit reports only if the name and, at a minimum, at least one other identifier |
| such as address; prior address; date of birth; mother's maiden name; place of employment; or prior |
| place of employment; also match matches the identity of the person who is the subject of the |
| inquiry. |
| SECTION 2. This act shall take effect upon passage. |
