Bill > HB05570

This bill proposes to establish a maximum fee limit for occupational and professional licenses at $100. Currently, various professional and occupational licensing bodies may charge fees above this amount, but under this proposed legislation, no government-issued license for a professional or occupational field would be allowed to cost more than $100. The bill aims to make professional licensing more affordable and accessible by creating a uniform fee cap across different types of licenses. This could potentially benefit individuals seeking to enter or maintain professional careers by reducing the financial barriers associated with obtaining and renewing professional credentials. The legislation would require existing licensing agencies to adjust their fee structures to comply with the new $100 maximum, regardless of the specific profession or occupation.
