Wrap: The measure requires the parent of a child under the age of 17 to sign a written statement at a tanning facility before the kid can use a tanning bed.
Jackson County Republican Representative Gary Cross sponsored the bill and it received wide bipartisan support across the House.
The final vote was 103-38 and the bill now heads to Gov. Jay Nixon's desk for his signature or veto.
