Public health: 7-Hydroxymitragynine.
- Prohibits the sale or distribution of kratom and related products to anyone under 21 years of age in California.
- Applies restrictions to all kratom leaf, kratom products, and items containing 7-Hydroxymitragynine.
- Places compliance responsibility on businesses and individuals who sell or distribute kratom products.
Assembly Member Bains proposes new restrictions on kratom products in California, establishing a minimum age requirement of 21 for the purchase of kratom leaf, kratom products, and substances containing 7-Hydroxymitragynine.
The legislation creates a new chapter in California's Health and Safety Code that prohibits individuals, businesses, and other entities from selling, offering for sale, providing, or distributing any kratom-related products to persons under 21 years of age. This measure adds to existing state regulations governing potentially harmful substances and drug masking products, though it does not modify current oversight mechanisms or establish new enforcement procedures.
The bill relies on existing regulatory frameworks and requires no new appropriations or fiscal commitments from state or local governments. While the legislation does not specify implementation timelines or enforcement protocols, it establishes clear parameters for age verification requirements that would apply to all entities involved in kratom distribution within California.
