WI AB1014

Ratifies Wisconsin's entry into the Interstate Massage Compact, allowing licensed massage therapists to practice across member states through a multistate license without obtaining separate licenses in each state

Requires multistate license applicants to complete at least 625 hours of massage therapy education, pass a national licensing examination, submit to a background check, and have no disqualifying criminal convictions (including kidnapping, human trafficking, or sexual assault)

Creates the Interstate Massage Compact Commission, composed of one delegate from each member state's licensing authority, with powers to promulgate rules, collect fees, maintain a coordinated database of licensee information, and enforce compact provisions

Establishes that adverse actions taken against a licensee's multistate license in their home state deactivate their authorization to practice in all other member states until encumbrances are removed

Compact becomes effective when enacted by seven states and allows member states to withdraw with 180 days notice after repealing their compact legislation
