This bill amends the Funeral Director Law, originally enacted on January 14, 1952, by updating the qualifications required for applicants seeking a funeral director license in Pennsylvania. Specifically, it removes the requirement that applicants must be a citizen of the United States and at least twenty-one years of age. Instead, the bill maintains that applicants must be graduates of an approved high school or possess an equivalent education as determined by the board's rules and regulations.

The changes aim to broaden the pool of potential applicants for funeral director licenses by eliminating citizenship and age restrictions, while still ensuring that educational standards are upheld. The bill is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
