Under the bill, anyone under the age of 14 would be prohibited from using indoor tanning facilities unless it is medically necessary and prescribed by a doctor.
Teens from 14 to 17 would need to submit a consent form, which would have to be signed by a parent or legal guardian in the presence of a tanning facility operator.
That consent would need to be renewed annually.
The bill is sponsored by Sen. Bethany Hall-Long.
It is officially known as Senate Bill 90.
