Bill Title: Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill. In a provision concerning grounds for discipline in the Massage Therapy Practice Act, provides that, notwithstanding any other law to the contrary, the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation shall revoke, without a hearing, any license issued under the Act of any person who is convicted of any offense related to sexual assault under the laws of any jurisdiction, including, without limitation, the following: prostitution; rape; sexual misconduct; involuntary sexual servitude of a minor; battery against a patient, including any offense based on sexual conduct or sexual penetration, in the course of patient care or treatment; or any crime that subjects the licensee to compliance with the requirements of the Sex Offender Registration Act (rather than prostitution; rape; sexual misconduct; or any crime that subjects the licensee to compliance with the requirements of the Sex Offender Registration Act). Provides that those convictions shall operate as a permanent bar to practice as a massage therapist in the State. Provides that a person who has been convicted of those offenses or who is required at any point to register as a sex offender may not receive, maintain, or restore a license as a massage therapist in Illinois. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
