The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 325E.3892, subdivision 1, by removing keys, key chains, and key rings from the list of items prohibited from containing lead and cadmium in consumer products. The definition of "covered product" is updated to include various items such as jewelry, toys, cosmetics, and art supplies, while specifically excluding the previously mentioned items related to keys and key chains.
This legislative change reflects a shift in regulatory focus, allowing for the inclusion of keys, key chains, and key rings in consumer products without the restrictions related to lead and cadmium. The amendment aims to streamline regulations and potentially reduce compliance burdens for manufacturers and retailers dealing with these items.
