Assembly Bill
No. 2762


Introduced by Assembly Members Muratsuchi, Quirk, and Wicks
(Coauthor: Assembly Member Bloom)

February 20, 2020


An act to add Section 111663 to the Chapter 14 (commencing with Section 108980) to Part 3 of Division 104 of the Health and Safety Code, relating to cosmetics.


LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


AB 2762, as amended, Muratsuchi. Cosmetics: safety. Cosmetic products: safety.

Existing law, the Sherman Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Law, prohibits the manufacture, sale, delivery, holding, or offer for sale of adulterated cosmetics, and prescribes when a cosmetic is adulterated, including when it bears or contains a poisonous or deleterious substance that may render it injurious to users when used as directed in the cosmetic’s labeling or advertising or under customary or usual conditions. Provisions of this law are enforced by the State Department of Public Health. A violation of these provisions is a crime.

Existing law provides the State Department of Public Health with the authority to pursue all actions necessary to protect public health, including areas of product safety.
This bill would, commencing January 1, 2025, prohibit a person or entity from manufacturing, selling, delivering, holding, or offering for sale, in commerce any cosmetic product that contains any of several specified intentionally added ingredients, except under specified circumstances. By expanding the scope of a crime, this bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.

This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.

Vote: MAJORITY   Appropriation: NO   Fiscal Committee: YES   Local Program: YESNO  

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:


SECTION 1.Section 111663 is added to the Health and Safety Code, to read:
