Bill Analysis

HB 4181 would make it a state jail felony to practice veterinary medicine without a license and falsely represent yourself as being a veterinarian.

Vote Recommendation Notes

Texas Action opposes HB 4181 as this is an example of overcriminalization which violates limited government and individual liberty.
