HF 4002 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Veterinary products from the prohibition on products containing PFAS exempted.

This bill exempts veterinary products from Minnesota's prohibition on products containing PFAS chemicals. It directly affects veterinarians, pet owners, and manufacturers of animal health products by allowing these items to contain PFAS under specific conditions. The key provision amends state law to exclude medical and veterinary devices from PFAS restrictions, aligning them with federal regulations overseen by the FDA and USDA. This change ensures that animal healthcare products are not blocked by state-level PFAS bans that would otherwise apply to other consumer goods.
