SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Family or household member; definition. Adds to the existing definition of "family or household member" the person's aunt, aunt-in-law, step-aunt, uncle, uncle-in-law, step-uncle, niece, nephew, and first and second cousin who reside in the same home as the person, and any individual who is in, or has been in, a dating relationship with the person.
