Bill > HB3147

This bill, known as the "Kratom Consumer Protection Act," establishes new regulations for the sale of kratom products in Missouri, defining a "dealer" as anyone selling, preparing, or advertising kratom products, and "kratom product" as a food or dietary ingredient containing parts of the Mitragyna speciosa leaf. The bill asserts that the state government exclusively controls the regulation of kratom products, voiding any local ordinances. It mandates that dealers must disclose the factual basis for any representation made about a kratom product on its label and prohibits the sale of products that don't meet these disclosure requirements. Furthermore, it prohibits the sale of kratom products that are adulterated with dangerous non-kratom substances, contaminated with poisonous or deleterious non-kratom ingredients, contain more than two percent 7-hydroxymitragynine in their alkaloid composition, include synthetic alkaloids, or fail to list the amounts of mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine on the label. The bill also prohibits selling kratom products to individuals under eighteen years of age. Violations of disclosure requirements can result in fines, while other violations are considered class D misdemeanors. Individuals harmed by certain violations can pursue private legal action for damages, and dealers can avoid liability if they relied in good faith on representations from manufacturers or distributors. The Department of Health and Senior Services is tasked with creating rules to implement these provisions, including label requirements.
