Health impacts of lead-containing bullets retained in the human body reporting required.
This bill requires Minnesota's commissioner of health to submit a report by January 15, 2027, examining the health effects of lead from bullets that remain inside people's bodies. The report must focus on how retained lead impacts the mental, emotional, and physical development of children and youth, reviewing existing scientific literature and state laws related to lead exposure. The commissioner must also analyze current legislation aimed at limiting lead exposure from retained bullets and provide recommendations for reducing public health risks. The final report will be sent to chairs and ranking minority members of relevant legislative health committees.
