Senate Bill #1486
2006-03-21

Senate Bill #1486 - General Bill by Posey

There is a very important bill facing the Florida Senate at this time. It is Senate Bill #1486. It calls for revised legislation to allow that all new licensees to be finger printed and that any one that gets an Auction Business License must meet the same back ground checks as someone that gets an Auctioneers License. The language of this bill was developed by the Attorney General's office.

I urge you to contact your own State Senator and any others that you know and ask them to support and ask them to co-sponsor this bill.
