HB1315 repeals occupational license requirements those for art therapists, auctioneers, interior designers, wigologists and massage therapists.
The Mississippi State House of Representatives passed HB1315 on February 3, 2021 by a vote of 74 to 36. We have assigned pluses to the ayes because the government has for far too long interfered with commerce and entrepreneurship by creating unnecessary licensure. The Declaration of Independence states, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness” and government interference in entrepreneurship and private business is in violation of that belief.
