#wqeb973newz | Atlanta, GA-🇺🇸 A major settlement could bring relief to military families across Georgia
The U.S. Department of Justice announced a $3 million settlement with 42 state licensing boards after allegations they failed to recognize out-of-state professional licenses for servicemembers and their spouses
Officials say thousands may have been impacted — with some unable to work after relocating on military orders
The agreement now requires faster, streamlined licensing and full compliance with federal protections moving forward
Servicemembers or spouses who believe they were affected are encouraged to contact the U.S. Attorney’s Office
