2019 House Bill 4044 ↩

Senate Roll Call 302: Passed

To allow the director of the state licensure department to authorize giving an “insurance producer” (salesperson) license to an individual who has been denied by a licensure board solely on the basis of the person having been convicted of a felony more than 10 years earlier, except for violent crimes, sex crimes or crimes of a fiduciary or financial nature. Under current law, any felony at any time bars an individual from getting an insurance agent license. The bill would also prohibit license denial for technical license law violations.
