Bill Analysis

HB 1070 would allow an unlicensed person to perform certain pest control work if that person operates under the direct supervision of someone who is appropriately licensed.

Vote Recommendation Notes

Texas Action supports HB 1070 which uplifts individual liberty and limited government by allowing unlicensed individuals to engage in pest control work in certain circumstances. This will make it easier for licensed individuals to hire workers, and make it easier for people to gain employment without going through the process of licensure.
