MODERATE
The bill was amended to expand sponsorship, increase warning label font size from 8-point to 12-point, change the effective date from 120 days to one year after enactment, and adjust the section numbering for penalties. These changes strengthen consumer warnings and provide more time for compliance while clarifying enforcement language.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains focused on regulating kratom product sales in New York, but enforcement language was narrowed to apply specifically to manufacturers rather than all business entities.
