Reporting requirement on health impacts of lead-containing bullets retained in the human body

This Minnesota bill requires the state health commissioner to prepare and submit a report by January 15, 2027, examining the health effects of lead-containing bullets that remain inside people's bodies. The report must analyze existing scientific research, review current state laws addressing lead exposure from retained bullets, and offer recommendations for reducing public health risks. The document will specifically focus on how retained bullets affect the mental, emotional, and physical development of children and youth. Once completed, the commissioner will send the report to relevant legislative health committee leaders.
