❌ SB324
Revise X-ray machine operator and radiation technician law
Current Status: In Senate Committee (Health)
Summary
The bill revises the licensing requirements for general x-ray machine operators and other radiation technicians in Ohio. It mandates that individuals must obtain a valid license to practice in these roles, outlines the application process, and specifies exceptions for certain licensed professionals and students. The bill also establishes conditions for license renewal and reinstatement.
Rationale
The bill introduces regulatory requirements for licensing in the medical field, which conflicts with the Libertarian principles of minimal government intervention and individual freedom in occupational choices. Both the LP and LPO platforms advocate for reduced government control and the elimination of unnecessary occupational licensing.
Risks and Concerns
- Increases government control over professions
- Restricts individual freedom to choose occupations
- Imposes additional costs and barriers to entry for practitioners
