Establishes the "Interstate Massage Compact"
HB 3262 establishes the "Interstate Massage Compact," creating a multistate licensing program for massage therapists to practice across participating states with a single license, eliminating the need for separate state applications. The Compact sets up an Interstate Commission to manage the program, share disciplinary and licensing information between states, and maintain safety standards for public access to massage therapy services. It directly affects licensed massage therapists seeking to work across state lines, military families relocating, and the states that adopt the Compact. The policy change simplifies licensing for therapists while ensuring states retain oversight authority over practice standards.
