Creating Intoxicating and Nicotine Retail Licensing and Public Safety Act

Summary

The bill creates a new statewide licensing system for retailers that sell nicotine, intoxicating hemp‑derived cannabinoids, kratom, psychoactive substances, related paraphernalia and drug‑test‑fraud devices. Retailers must obtain both a state license and a county operating permit, follow strict product testing and labeling requirements, and comply with advertising bans and setback distances from schools and other youth areas. The goal is to curb youth access and protect public health while placing compliance costs on businesses, not the state.
