SB 41

One of the most significant barriers to earning a living that people face across the country is strict occupational licensing laws. Over the past 50 years the number of professions requiring licenses has risen dramatically, from approximately one in twenty workers to one in four workers. These laws force people to undergo thousands of hours of training and spend hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars obtaining these licenses to work. We should be removing licensure rules, not adding more to the state code.
