AI Summary
This bill, SB 758, aims to enhance public health by regulating the sale of certain substances. Specifically, it prohibits retailers from selling nitrous oxide, commonly known as "laughing gas," at their locations, with exceptions for grocery stores and general merchandise stores that include a grocery department. Additionally, the bill makes it a misdemeanor, a less serious criminal offense, to sell or distribute products containing 7-hydroxymitragynine, a compound found in the kratom plant, unless it is in its natural form within the plant itself. These changes are intended to address potential public health concerns associated with these substances.
