Michigan House Bill 5055 of 2021 would make changes to the review criteria for those seeking to obtain a reciprocal Michigan skilled trades license without sitting for a Michigan licensing exam. As proposed, the bill would extend a provision that was provided in Public Act 407 of 2016 ONLY for members of the armed forces, veterans, and their dependents to now include ALL applicants. It would also remove the requirement for all applicants for a reciprocal license that the qualifications in the state where they currently hold a license be substantially equivalent to the requirements for Michigan. See the full bill below.


We are asking that you contact your state representative to express opposition to House Bill 5055. In stating your opposition, the key points are that HB 5055:


  • Extends a benefit that was only intended for the armed forces to all applicants.
  • Eliminates the requirement for passing a licensing exam by either a Michigan recognized entity or by another state for obtaining a reciprocal license.
  • Eliminates the criteria that the licensing requirements of another state be substantially equivalent to the requirements for licensing in Michigan.
  • Reduces the period of previous licensure in another state to only six months when trying to obtain a Michigan skilled trades license.
 
You can find the contact information to either email or call your state representative at: https://www.house.mi.gov/

You can also write to your state representative. See sample letter below.

 
Please take a few minutes and contact your state representative as soon as possible to express your opposition to House Bill 5055.
