Licensing fees paid by barbers, boxing judges, nurses unchanged

MADISON - Licensing fees paid by everyone from nurses to boxing judges in Wisconsin will not change over the next two years.

The Legislature's budget committee on Wednesday voted to keep the licensing and regulation fee schedule the same over the next two years for more than 150 professions.

Democrats proposed lowering the renewal fees for audiologists and speech-language pathologists. Rep. Chris Taylor, of Madison, argued that they are paying more than necessary for their fees.
