Legislative Response: Comments on the Proposed Rule Changes to the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA)

Management Public Registries

In October 2020, ATSA submitted comments on proposed changes to the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA), raising concerns about the Attorney General's unilateral authority to modify SORNA and the lack of consistent, evidence-based laws across states.

ATSA recommends a review process for changes to SORNA, alignment of laws with evidence-based practices, and relief from registration for natural disasters and public health emergencies.
