Relating to: preliminary health care credentials granted to previously unlicensed individuals. (FE)

This bill establishes a commission to manage Wisconsin's social work licensure compact, which allows licensed social workers to practice across multiple participating states. It creates a new section in state statutes to define the commission's structure and membership, ensuring representation from various professional groups and consumer advocates. The legislation also clarifies the definition of "licensed treatment professional" to include specific mental health practitioners while excluding those with suspended or restricted licenses. Although the bill passed the legislature, it was vetoed by the Governor and did not become law.
