Minnesota House of Representatives: Committee OKs preliminary professional licensing applications

Sponsored by Rep. Zack Stephenson (DFL-Coon Rapids), HF3403 aims to help people like Reaves.

It would establish a procedure whereby people could understand within 60 days of a preliminary application if they’re eligible for a license before spending time and money trying to attain it.

“In 19 states and Washington, D.C., individuals with criminal records have a pre-clearance process to apply to state licensors at any time prior to enrolling into required education or training programs,” wrote Jenna Bottler, deputy director of Justice Action Network.
