Bill > HB1930

This bill authorizes the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to join the Cosmetology Licensure Compact, which establishes a regulatory framework to facilitate the interstate practice and regulation of cosmetology. The Compact aims to improve public access to and the safety of cosmetology services, reduce unnecessary licensure burdens, and provide increased mobility and value for licensed cosmetologists across member states. The bill outlines the requirements for member states, the powers and duties of the Cosmetology Licensure Compact Commission, and the processes for multistate licensing, adverse actions, and dispute resolution. The Compact will become effective and operative when Pennsylvania and at least one other state have ratified it.
