According to the Wisconsin State Legislature's official website, the bill was described as follows: "ratification of the Cosmetology Licensure Compact. (FE)".
The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
In essence, this bill ratifies the Cosmetology Licensure Compact, allowing Wisconsin to join an agreement that enables licensed cosmetologists to practice in multiple member states. The compact establishes a Cosmetology Licensure Compact Commission responsible for oversight, rulemaking, and administration of the compact. The bill details the creation of a multistate licensing system, allowing cosmetologists with certain qualifications to obtain a multistate license and practice in other member states under their local laws. It also introduces the ability of member states to conduct joint investigations and issue enforceable subpoenas. Additional provisions cover the coordination of a shared database for licensure and disciplinary information and outline a framework for resolving disputes among states. The compact will take effect upon its enactment by seven states and stipulates conditions for state withdrawal and amendments. The bill is set to be effective upon its enactment into law in Wisconsin.
The bill was co-authored by Senator André Jacque (Republican-1st District), Representative Benjamin Franklin (Republican-88th District), Representative Tara Johnson (Democrat-96th District), Representative Daniel Knodl (Republican-24th District), Representative Rob Kreibich (Republican-28th District).

Brill, a Republican, was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly in 2025 to represent the state's 27th Assembly district, replacing previous state representative Amy Binsfeld.
In Wisconsin, the legislative process starts when a senator, constituent, group, or agency proposes an idea for a bill. After drafting, the bill is introduced, numbered, and referred to a committee for review and public input. If approved, it moves through three readings and votes in both the Senate and Assembly. Once both chambers pass the same version, the bill goes to the governor, who can sign it, veto it, or let it become law without a signature. Only a small share of bills introduced each session ultimately become law. You can learn more about the Wisconsin legislative process here.
