Bill Summary
CONCERNING THE ABILITY OF EX-OFFENDERS TO RECEIVE AUTHORIZATION TO PRACTICE IN STATE-REGULATED OCCUPATIONS, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.
AI Summary
This bill aims to expand employment opportunities for individuals with criminal records in state-regulated occupations. It establishes a process for regulators to consider an applicant's criminal record, with restrictions on how long a conviction can be considered and a requirement to show the conviction directly relates to the duties of the profession. The bill also allows individuals to petition regulators on whether their criminal record will affect their application, and requires regulators to provide guidance on remedial actions. Additionally, the bill appropriates funds to the Department of Regulatory Agencies to implement these changes.
