Assembly member Matt Haney of San Francisco has introduced Assembly Bill 2365, also known as the Kratom Safety Act, to enforce stricter controls on the sale and production of kratom in California. The proposed bill, as reported by CBS San Francisco, aims to ban the sale of adulterated kratom, require rigorous testing, and restrict sales to individuals over the age of 21. With kratom’s growing popularity as a stimulant and therapeutic agent, concerns have risen over product contamination and unregulated potency. The legislation seeks to standardize safety practices and ensure consumers are well informed about the products they purchase, amid ongoing debates about the plant’s benefits and risks.
