Troublesome State Bills Successfully Modified or Pulled in California, Delaware and New Jersey
The holiday shortened week finds only four state legislatures – California, Massachusetts, Michigan and North Carolina – actively meeting. As always, AACS will keep you apprised of the latest state legislative developments of interest to member schools.
California’s Senate Business, Professions and Economic Development Committee conducted a hearing Monday on several bills that would tighten regulation of private postsecondary schools – including cosmetology schools. According to the San Francisco Chronicle, AB 1340 which was originally drafted as a state Gainful Employment bill was amended to a data collection and reporting bill to address Committee objections.
