The sheriff dep&amp;#x27;t isn&amp;#x27;t doing this _specifically_ with &amp;quot;anti-abortion states&amp;quot;, they&amp;#x27;re doing this broadly with other states &amp;quot;including Alabama, Oklahoma and Texas&amp;quot;.&lt;p&gt;Not listed in the article is that they also shared with Arizona, Indiana, Louisiana, Nevada, Oregon, Tennessee, Illinois, Mississippi, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Arkansas, Michigan, Utah, Wisconsin, Florida, Colorado, New Mexico, New York (State), North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Ohio, and probably some others that weren&amp;#x27;t listed.&lt;p&gt;Is this bad? Absolutely. Is this specifically related to abortion? No.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Sacramento Sheriff sharing license plate reader data with anti-abortion states</title><url>https://www.sacbee.com/news/politics-government/capitol-alert/article276848586.html</url></story>
