One Hundred Ninth Legislature - First Session - 2025
Introducer€s Statement of Intent
LB83
€
Chairperson: Senator Brian Hardin
Committee: Health and Human Services
Date of Hearing: January 30, 2025
€
The following constitutes the reasons for this bill and the purposes which are sought to be
accomplished thereby:
LB83 would have Nebraska join the Dentist and Dental Hygienist Interstate Compact. LB83
would ease licensure hurdles for licensed dentists and dental hygienists moving to Nebraska
so they can practice and enter the workforce in a shorter period of time through granting a
multi-state license and a shared database between Compact member states for background
checks. Military spouses and others licensed in these professions that have moved to
Nebraska will be able to enter the workforce sooner as well.€
