Latest Text Digest

(1) Existing law, the Cigarette and Tobacco Products Licensing Act of 2003, requires a retailer, as defined, to hold a license from the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration to engage in the sale of cigarettes or tobacco products. A violation of these provisions is a misdemeanor.

This bill would expand those provisions to prohibit a retailer from selling nitrous oxide in any retail location, subject to certain exceptions.
