What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This allows a city, village, town, or county to regulate transportation network

companies (TNCs), their drivers, and the drivers' vehicles. Current law prohibits

cities, villages, towns, or counties from enacting or enforcing such regulations, and

under current law the Department of Safety and Professional Services has exclusive

authority to regulate TNCs, their drivers, and the drivers' vehicles.
