Keys, key chains, and key rings removed from the prohibition on lead and cadmium in consumer products provision
This bill amends Minnesota law to remove keys, key chains, and key rings from the list of consumer products prohibited from containing lead or cadmium. It directly affects manufacturers and sellers of these key accessories, exempting them from existing lead and cadmium restrictions that apply to other items like jewelry, toys, and children's products. The change modifies the definition of "covered product" in Minnesota Statutes section 325E.3892, specifically deleting the reference to keys and key rings from the regulated list. This is a technical adjustment to the statute, not a new restriction or policy change for other products.
