1 Legislative Update May 2018 This Legislative Update includes summaries of select bills tracked by the AVMA from April 15, 2018 through May 15, In the month since our last publication of the Legislative Update, 13 state legislatures adjourned for the year. But our work is not over; 18 states and five U.S. Territories remain in session. Here are some highlights from the last four weeks: Abuse Reporting / Civil Liability The Illinois state house of representatives passed HB 4191, to amend the Humane Care for Animals Act. The bill would give a person immunity, from civil and criminal liability, when he/she forcibly removes an animal from a locked vehicle. The legislation awaits action by the Illinois state senate. Legal Issues Max s Law, S 8722, was introduced in the New York state senate and would hold a person liable if they intentionally, recklessly, or negligently cause the death of a companion animal by act or omission. Pet Issues Legislation, HB 5916, introduced in Michigan proposes to regulate pet shops, animal control shelters, and animal protection shelters. The bill would also establish uniform procedures and minimum requirements for adoption of dogs, cats, and ferrets. Pennsylvania legislation would prohibit pet stores from selling dogs, cats, and rabbits unless sourced from shelters and rescues. Prescription Drug Monitoring Programs / Controlled Substances Veterinarians licensed in Illinois will be required to complete three hours of continuing education (CE) in safe opioid prescribing practices offered or accredited by a professional association, state government agency, or federal government agency, under a bill moving through the Illinois senate. A prescriber may count the three hours toward the total CE required for renewal of a professional license. Scope of Practice Feline onychectomy, or declawing, would have been criminalized in California had SB 1441 not been defeated. The bill would have imposed the nation's first statewide ban on feline onychectomy, having proposed to add domestic cats to the state ban already in place on the procedure for exotic or wild-native cat species. The Louisiana state senate unanimously passed HB 748 to amend the state s Occupational Licensing Review Act. The bill would allow the Governor to annually review no less than 20% of the agencies engaged in regulatory and licensing activities, while requiring review of all such agencies within the next five years. Controversial provisions prohibiting the communication of private certifications unless they were required for licensing were stricken from the bill. Several professional organizations, including Louisiana VMA, expressed concerns to legislators about the proposed restrictions. The Oregon Examining Board proposed several noteworthy regulations recently: Clarifying the definition of herd or flock animal ; Revising the supervision requirements for veterinary interns; Authorizing the use of electronic mail for Board notifications; Clarifying the scope of work for Certified Technicians regarding dental extractions, rabies vaccine administration, and microchips; and 1910 Sunderland Place, NW Washington, DC p:
