In July, Squire Patton Boggs partner Petrina H. McDaniel and
associate Keshia Lipscomb outlined several of the pending
amendments expected to impact the scope of the California Consumer
Privacy Act ("CCPA") in an article with Bloomberg Law. Shortly after, the
California Senate Judiciary Committee held a nearly 12-hour hearing
on Tuesday, July 9th just before the impending deadline for CCPA
amendments to be heard before the CCPA's January 1st effective
date.
With new guidance from the committee, Petrina and Keshia
followed up with a second article summarizing key takeaways from
the July 9th hearing and proposing guidelines for businesses to
address the legal ramifications and compliance hurdles of the CCPA.
The California Senate has just reconvened from its summer recess
and now has until September 13th to pass the remaining amendments
through the Senate in time to become part of the CCPA before
January 1, 2020.
