Relating to: ratification of the Cosmetology Licensure Compact. (FE)

SB 335 ratifies the Cosmetology Licensure Compact, enabling cosmetologists, aestheticians, and manicurists to practice across participating states using a single multistate license. The bill adds new provisions allowing licensed professionals from states that joined the compact to work in this state without obtaining a separate state license, provided they hold a valid multistate license. It defines key terms like "multistate license" and updates licensing requirements to include this new pathway, while maintaining existing single-state license rules. This directly affects licensed beauty industry professionals seeking to work in multiple states without reapplying for licenses in each jurisdiction.
