AI Summary
This bill defines "nicotine-adjacent product" to include substances with a chemical structure similar to nicotine, those that mimic nicotine's effects on the central nervous system, or those marketed to evade existing regulations, and prohibits their distribution to individuals under 21 years old, with enhanced penalties for sales near educational properties or other public places. It also revises the definition of an "ENDS product" (Electronic Nicotine Delivery System) to encompass these nicotine-adjacent products, ensuring they are subject to the same regulations as traditional e-cigarettes and related devices, and brings forward existing provisions for potential amendment regarding ENDS product certification and compliance with FDA regulations.
