Licensing boards required to take action against a license or application when a licensee or applicant is convicted of certain theft or fraud offenses.
HF 3563 requires Minnesota licensing boards to automatically suspend or revoke licenses, or deny license applications, when a licensee or applicant is convicted of specific theft or fraud crimes listed in Minnesota law (including offenses under sections like 609.23, 609.496, and 609.52). This directly affects licensed professionals - such as healthcare providers, contractors, and financial advisors - who face criminal convictions for these offenses. The bill mandates that boards take formal action upon conviction, rather than allowing licenses to remain active despite criminal findings. It amends Minnesota Statutes 214.10 to establish this requirement, effective immediately after enactment.
