Complete·5/31/25
Introduced Text

Illinois HR0334 urges the elimination of the Multistate Pharmacy Jurisprudence Examination (MPJE) for pharmacist licensure.

Illinois HR0334 calls for the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation to eliminate the MPJE as a requirement for pharmacist licensure. The resolution cites redundancy and inconsistency in the MPJE, and a lack of correlation with public safety outcomes. It encourages exploring alternatives such as continuing education or integrating jurisprudence content within the North American Pharmacist Licensure Examination (NAPLEX). The resolution also highlights that other states and territories have already eliminated the MPJE without adverse effects on patient safety.
