Enters NJ in Cosmetology Licensure Compact.

This bill would enter New Jersey into the Cosmetology Licensure Compact, creating a multistate licensing system for cosmetologists. Under this system, cosmetologists licensed in New Jersey would be able to practice in other member states without obtaining separate licenses, provided they hold an active and unencumbered license in their home state. The compact establishes a Cosmetology Licensure Compact Commission to oversee the system and a data system for sharing information about licensees and adverse actions. It also includes specific provisions for military members and their spouses who are cosmetologists.
