January 3, 2022 - Offered by Senator Jacque.
SB469-SSA1,1,3 1An Act to repeal 89.073 (1), 89.073 (2m), 440.09 (1) and 440.09 (2m); to amend

Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill creates a process for certain individuals who hold a license,
certification, registration, or permit that was granted by another state to apply for
and receive a reciprocal credential in this state. Under current law, an individual
may not engage in certain professions or assume certain titles in this state unless the
individual holds a credential issued by a department, examining board, or
credentialing board with authority to oversee the profession or practice. Current law
requires the Department of Safety and Professional Services, the Veterinary
Examining Board, and any credentialing board attached to DSPS, with certain
exceptions, to issue a reciprocal credential to a service member, former service
member, or the spouse of a service member or former service member who resides in
this state if certain conditions are met. This bill expands who may apply for
reciprocal credentials to include all individuals. The bill does not allow individuals
to receive a reciprocal credential from the Accounting Examining Board or the Real
Estate Examining Board that would grant the holder of the credential a limited right

to practice law in this state, unless the applicant is licensed to practice law in this
state.
