The Consortium of Privacy Regulators is expanding, now including Minnesota and New Hampshire alongside eight other states to coordinate enforcement of comprehensive privacy laws. California’s CalPrivacy also launched a Data Broker Enforcement Strike Force to ensure compliance with registration and consumer privacy rules under the Delete Act. These initiatives signal increased state-level coordination and enforcement in 2026, prompting businesses to review privacy programs, enhance training, and adopt adaptive, principles-based approaches to compliance.
