§ 74.04.062. Disclosure of recipient location to police officer or immigration official
Upon written request of a person who has been properly identified as an officer of the law or a properly identified United States immigration official the department shall disclose to such officer the current address and location of a recipient of public welfare if the officer furnishes the department with such person's name and social security account number and satisfactorily demonstrates that such recipient is a fugitive, that the location or apprehension of such fugitive is within the officer's official duties, and that the request is made in the proper exercise of those duties.
When the department becomes aware that a public assistance recipient is the subject of an outstanding warrant, the department may contact the appropriate law enforcement agency and, if the warrant is valid, provide the law enforcement agency with the location of the recipient.
