STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS28260 / S1083
This legislation relating to occupational licensing reform improves the clarity of the license by endorsement
process for our military members, veterans, and spouses. It includes a deadline for processing applications for
licensure. It provides for basic requirements for proof of military or veteran status and licensure in another
jurisdiction and allows for a limited scope of practice rather than outright denial. It also maintains the ability
to benefit from existing interstate compacts for licensure.
FISCAL NOTE
These changes provide clarity and simplification to the process and do not require additional staff so there will
not be any fiscal impact on the State budget.
