Relating to the licensing and regulation of dietitians.

SB 627 updates Texas licensing rules for dietitians by requiring a formal code of ethics, setting qualification standards for licenses, and prohibiting the use of titles like "licensed dietitian" (LD) or "provisional licensed dietitian" (PLD) without a valid license. It also adds a new requirement that license renewals may be denied if administrative penalties remain unpaid. The bill directly affects dietitians seeking or maintaining licenses in Texas and ensures public access to verified professionals. The law takes effect September 1, 2025, after being signed by the Governor on June 20, 2025.
