PA 26-14 is a use/retain/share statute, not statewide removal. Collection remains lawful for listed law-enforcement purposes.

ALPR statute

PA 26-14 §§ 13–15 (sSB 397, signed May 4, 2026; amended by PA 26-76 § 46): from Oct. 1, 2026, listed ALPR uses only, 21-day default retention, neighbor-state sharing with attestation. Not a collection ban.

Executive

Gov. Lamont letter to POST-C, Aug. 7, 2026, requests 30-day ALPR/camera guidance and urges towns to pause new installs until that guidance. Not an executive order. Does not revoke existing cameras or bind municipalities.

Local
