Ban any tanning facility to operate a tanning bed for public( commercial) usage that does not comply with federal laws

Created by K.M. on January 24, 2013

The federal government that charges legitimate tanning salons a 10% excise fee, and the states that make tanning salons pay for licenses to run such s( 24 hour access that cannot properly monitor the usage of a person without supervision or sanitizing of the unit).
Since the federal government has imposed a 10% excise tax onto legitimate owners of tanning salons and those who comply, there are others who fail to do so. The 24 hour tanning beds violate every health and state law that requires a time limit on exposure. The “honor” system doesn't stop somebody from back to back laying at 2 am.
A law that bans 24 hour access unless supervised by an employee needs to be enforced, in addition to heavy fines to those who fail to register and pay the taxes that legitimate salons and operators pay
