## Summary

**Limited FBI criminal history sharing for multistate occupational licensing.** This bill would let the FBI provide criminal history record information (CHRI) to State licensing authorities for background checks required by interstate compacts while imposing strict limits on how that information may be used and shared. - Workers and applicants: People seeking a multistate license would have their criminal history checked using FBI CHRI supplied to State licensing authorities. This helps enable practice across compact member States. - State licensing authorities: States could obtain CHRI through agreements with State law enforcement or the State identification bureau and must use it only for licensing decisions. They may not share CHRI with the compact commission, other State entities, or the public. - Compact commissions and privacy: Commissions may receive only a confirmation that a background check was completed and a simple satisfactory/unsatisfactory determination. The provision aims to limit broader dissemination to protect individuals' privacy.
