House Concurrent Resolution No. by Representative Chenevert proposes to suspend the licensing requirements for nonpublic prekindergarten programs as early learning centers, as mandated by R.S. 17:24.8(B)(2). This suspension is in response to concerns raised by some nonpublic schools regarding operational challenges associated with the licensure process. The resolution aims to alleviate these barriers and facilitate smoother operations for these educational programs.

The suspension will take effect upon the adoption of the resolution and will remain in place until sixty days after the final adjournment of the 2027 Regular Session of the Louisiana Legislature. This measure reflects the legislature's intent to provide temporary relief from the licensing requirements, allowing nonpublic prekindergarten programs to operate without the constraints of the current law during this period.
