HB 2096 Summary

• Allows honorably discharged veterans to obtain a 45-day temporary security guard or armed security guard registration certificate while background screening is being completed.

• Veterans must have been discharged not more than 3 years before application to qualify for the expedited certificate.

• Temporarily registered security guards under this provision may only work for agencies that provide preassignment training as specified in section 32-2632.
