Newsletter Update                            #052 March 7, 2011 
Legislative Alert: Interim Report
  
It appears that HB73 and HB322 are both dead.


The BLMTB Board and the Montana Health Freedom Coalition opposed both bills. 
These bills would have effectively “outlawed” unlicensed professions by making it easier for boards to take action against individuals practicing unlicensed professions.

The good news is that currently both bills are "on the table" and unlikely to come off. So they are likely dead.
The bad news is that bills attacking unlicensed professions will continue to be introduced until a health freedom law is passed.

Board of Massage Therapy Meeting: March 15 - 2pm

Click here for the Agenda.


Click here for the Board Book

The agenda mainly concerns licensing applications and unlicensed practice complaints.
As always, we support public participation. So please attend!

If you like the info that you get from the BLMTB consider becoming a member or making a donation. While we provide all of our info for free, it does cost us something to keep the website going and to provide information to the general public. For example, we'll be doing a postcard mailing that will cost several hundred dollars to ensure that everyone on our list is notified about licensing. So anything you can do to help offset our expenses is greatly appreciated. To join or donate, visit our website: http://www.blmtb.org/ and click on "contact us" then "join/renew"
