To: | All Senate members |
Subject: | State Licensing Board Reforms |
I will soon be introducing a proposal to provide additional recourse to victims whose cases would be heard before any of the state’s licensing boards. Specifically, the legislation would require a defendant or “respondent” appear in person for any hearing. Also, a victim or anyone adversely affected by the respondent’s actions or malfeasance; which prompted the case before the licensing board, commission or hearing examiner, would have the opportunity to provide a victim’s statement. I believe this legislation would address a gap that currently exists in law as it relates to consumer protection and I would urge your support of this proposal. |
Introduced as SB1087
