Establishes the Physician Assistant Licensure Compact in Texas.

The bill establishes the Physician Assistant Licensure Compact in Texas, allowing PAs licensed in one state to practice in other participating states. It outlines the requirements for participating states, including licensing PAs, participating in the Compact Commission's data system, and implementing criminal background checks. The Compact Commission, a national administrative body, will oversee the compact, promulgate rules, and handle disputes. States can withdraw from the compact, and the compact will remain in effect even if the number of participating states drops below seven.
