This bill establishes the Interstate Teacher Mobility Compact in Minnesota, designed to facilitate the movement of teachers across member states by creating a streamlined pathway to licensure. It aims to support teachers, especially military spouses, by enhancing the exchange of licensure and disciplinary information, removing barriers to employment for out-of-state teachers, and maintaining state sovereignty in regulating the teaching profession. The compact includes provisions for the creation of a regulatory framework that expedites licensure mobility and supports teacher retention, while also establishing the Interstate Teacher Mobility Compact Commission to oversee its implementation.

Additionally, the bill introduces amendments to existing laws governing the commission's operations, focusing on the structure and responsibilities of the executive committee, which must meet at least once a year. It allows for the addition or removal of committee members and outlines various responsibilities, including budget preparation and compliance monitoring. The bill also addresses the financing of the commission, permitting it to accept donations and grants, and establishes qualified immunity for commission members. Furthermore, it clarifies the relationship between the compact and other state laws, ensuring that non-conflicting state laws remain enforceable while reinforcing the authority of the compact's implementation across member states.
