Easier Multi-State Work: Access to Criminal History for Licenses
This new law makes it easier for licensed professionals to work across different U.S. states. State agencies can now quickly access criminal history records from the FBI for background checks, speeding up the licensing process. This means less red tape for professionals seeking to work outside their home state.
Key points
State agencies can now easily obtain criminal history data from the FBI to vet individuals applying for professional licenses in other states.
Criminal history information is protected and can only be used for license verification purposes; it cannot be shared publicly or with other entities.
The act aims to streamline the process of recognizing professional licenses across states, facilitating workforce mobility.
