Mississippi Professional Massage Therapy Act; extend repealer on.
SB 2695 extends the automatic expiration date of Mississippi's Professional Massage Therapy Act to July 1, 2029. This keeps the current licensing requirements for massage therapists and establishments in place, preventing the law from being repealed earlier. The bill also brings forward the existing sections of the act (73-67-1 through 73-67-37) to allow for future amendments. It directly affects massage therapy professionals and businesses operating under Mississippi's licensing system.
