We will discuss the latest developments in state consumer privacy legislation, including the Texas, Oregon, and Montana laws that will go into effect this year. We will also consider how businesses can meet the challenges of a US privacy regulatory landscape that is growing increasingly complex as more and more states pass their own comprehensive consumer privacy laws. Thus far, Delaware, Iowa, New Jersey, and Tennessee have laws that will go into effect in 2025, with more likely on the way.

What’s Next in Privacy Legislation
Will there be federal action?
The United States still does not have an all-encompassing federal data privacy law. While several federal bills have been proposed over the years, none have been successful.
On April 5, 2024, a bipartisan, bicameral federal privacy bill was proposed. Called the American Privacy Rights Act, it includes requirements on data minimization, consumer rights to opt out of targeted advertising and view, correct, export, or delete their data. The bill also includes data security provisions, a section on "executive responsibility," and a national data broker registry. It also would prevent organizations from enforcing mandatory arbitrations when there is significant privacy harm.
What’s Next for State Privacy Laws?
To date, there are 15 US states that are considering legislation on consumer privacy.
