Bill Summary

OCCUPATIONAL LICENSING -- Amends existing law to remove outdated references to moral character.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing law to remove outdated references to moral character. Specifically, the bill removes language related to "good moral character" as a requirement for various licenses and certifications, and instead requires that the applicant has not been convicted, found guilty, or received a withheld judgment or suspended sentence in this state or any other state of a crime deemed relevant. The bill applies these changes to a wide range of occupational licenses, including for certified public accountants, dentists, physical therapists, psychologists, and more.
