S 1263 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Prohibits the sale of certain hazardous inhalants to persons under the age of twenty-one

S 1263 prohibits businesses from selling hazardous inhalants - such as certain nitrite-based products (e.g., amyl nitrite) or glue containing toxic solvents - to anyone under 21 years old. It requires sellers to verify the buyer’s age (except for those appearing 30+), with civil penalties of up to $500 for violations. The law exempts medical/dental use and industrial products. This directly affects retailers selling these items, aiming to restrict access by underage individuals.
