| Alabama | Illegal | Kratom has been illegal in Alabama since May 2016. It is classified as a Schedule I controlled substance. On March 25, 2026, Attorney General Steve Marshall issued a statewide cease-and-desist order targeting retailers selling mislabeled products containing kratom. The American Kratom Association continues lobbying to replace the ban with the Kratom Consumer Protection Act, but no KCPA bill advanced during the 2026 session. | 2026-03-26 |
| Alaska | Legal | Kratom is legal statewide in Alaska with no state-level restrictions. Anchorage Ordinance AO 2025-50, which would have made kratom possession and sale a Class A misdemeanor within municipal limits, was postponed indefinitely by the Anchorage Assembly on April 22, 2025, citing insufficient evidence. No active local bans are in place. | 2025-04-22 |
| Arizona | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Arizona under the 2019 Kratom Consumer Protection Act. HB 2415, an expanded KCPA bill, passed the Arizona House 36-17 on February 26, 2026 and remains pending in the Senate as of May 2026. The bill would raise the minimum age from 18 to 21, classify any compound containing at least 800 ppm of 7-hydroxymitragynine and synthetically derived kratom compounds as narcotic drugs, require retailers to keep products behind the counter, prohibit sales within 500 feet of schools and child-care facilities, and auto-repeal kratom regulation if the DEA schedules kratom by January 1, 2037. Existing KCPA requirements (age 18+, prohibition on adulteration, 7-OH no more than 2% of total alkaloid content, mandatory labeling) remain in effect. | 2026-05-11 |
| Arkansas | Illegal | Kratom has been banned in Arkansas since February 2016 as a Schedule I controlled substance. SB 534, the Arkansas Kratom Consumer Protection Act sponsored by Sen. Greg Leding, passed the Senate 24-5 on April 7, 2025 but received a 'Do Not Pass' recommendation from the House Public Health Committee and died at sine die on May 5, 2025. No replacement bill has advanced in the 2026 session. Possession and distribution continue to carry criminal penalties. | 2025-05-05 |
| California | Illegal | Kratom and 7-hydroxymitragynine products are now prohibited statewide in California. On October 24, 2025, the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) declared kratom and 7-OH to be unapproved food additives and illegal to sell or manufacture under the Sherman Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Law. The Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) began full enforcement against licensed retailers on February 9, 2026, and Governor Newsom announced 95% retailer compliance on March 3, 2026, with more than 3,300 products removed from shelves. AB 1088 (state-level KCPA-style framework regulating kratom and 7-OH for ages 21+) remains pending in the Senate Health Committee. CDPH also filed legal action against a kratom manufacturer in 2026. | 2026-04-21 |
| Colorado | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Colorado under an expanded Kratom Consumer Protection Act. Governor Jared Polis signed SB25-072 (the 'Daniel Bregger Act') on May 29, 2025, strengthening the 2022 KCPA. Key provisions include a minimum sales age of 21, prohibition on synthesized or semi-synthesized kratom alkaloids, a cap on 7-hydroxymitragynine at no more than 2% of the alkaloid fraction, mandatory FDA food facility registration for processors, detailed labeling requirements, and treatment of violations as deceptive trade practices under the Colorado Consumer Protection Act. Most provisions take effect August 12, 2026. Localities retain authority to adopt stricter controls. | 2025-05-29 |
| Connecticut | Illegal | Kratom is illegal in Connecticut. The Legislative Regulation Review Committee approved regulations designating Mitragyna speciosa (kratom), including its leaves, stem, and any extracts, as well as 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH), as Schedule 1 Controlled Substances. The Department of Consumer Protection issued guidance on March 4, 2026 requiring all businesses to remove kratom products from shelves immediately and return or destroy them by March 25, 2026. Possession, manufacture, sale, or distribution can result in felony charges. | 2026-03-19 |
| Delaware | Under Review | Kratom is currently legal in Delaware, but two competing bills have been introduced in the 2025–2026 legislative session. Sen. Kyra Hoffner sponsored a bill to ban kratom entirely (stalled in committee). Rep. Melanie Ross Levin sponsored HB 332, a regulation bill that would prohibit sales to persons under 21, ban products with more than 2% 7-hydroxymitragynine in the alkaloid fraction, ban synthetic alkaloids, and require labeling of mitragynine and 7-OH content. HB 332 has not yet received a hearing. The Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Enforcement would be required to report on adverse events by December 31, 2026. | 2026-04-13 |
| District of Columbia | Legal | Kratom is legal in Washington D.C. with basic oversight. No DC Council legislation on kratom advanced in 2026 and no major restrictions have been enacted. | 2026-05-13 |
| Florida | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Florida under the Kratom Consumer Protection Act (CS/HB 179, signed 2023), which sets the minimum sales age at 21 and prohibits synthetic kratom and products adulterated with controlled substances. In August 2025, Florida made it a felony to sell, possess, or distribute concentrated 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH). Two 2026 bills (SB 994 by Sen. Gruters and HB 1205) would have further expanded the KCPA with mandatory lab testing, FDACS permitting, mixing prohibitions with caffeine/alcohol/cannabinoids/kava, and school-buffer restrictions — both stalled, with SB 994 dying in Commerce and Tourism on March 13, 2026. | 2026-03-13 |
| Georgia | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Georgia under the Kratom Consumer Protection Act, most recently strengthened by HB 181 (signed by Gov. Kemp May 2, 2024, effective January 1, 2025), which set maximum per-serving limits for mitragynine and 7-OH, banned synthesized alkaloids, and required vendor registration, ingredient labeling, and alkaloid disclosure. HB 968, introduced January 16, 2026 by Rep. Rick Townsend, would have classified mitragynine and 7-OH as Schedule I controlled substances and repealed parts of the existing KCPA, but failed to reach a House floor vote by Crossover Day and stalled in committee. A proposed City of Carrollton ordinance restricting kratom sales near schools, parks, and churches was paused in March 2026 pending an opinion from the state Attorney General on whether localities may preempt state law. | 2026-03-11 |
| Hawaii | Legal | Kratom is currently legal in Hawaii. In the 2025 session, two regulatory bills were introduced: SB 463 (stalled in Senate committee, February 2025) and HB 717, which would establish the Hawaii Kratom Consumer Protection Act with product registration and labeling requirements. HB 717 remained under House review and did not advance to enactment. No ban legislation is active. | 2026-05-13 |
| Idaho | Legal | Kratom is currently legal in Idaho. The 2026 session considered four bills: ban bills HB 830 and HB 864 (sponsored by Rep. Mike Pohanka, backed by the Idaho Chiefs of Police Association) would have classified mitragynine as Schedule I; regulatory bills SB 1282 and SB 1418 (sponsored by Sen. Tammy Nichols) would have banned synthetic 7-OH products and set a 21+ purchase age. All four failed to pass before adjournment. The city of Idaho Falls is drafting a local sales ban, with city council work sessions scheduled May 18 and June 1, 2026; if adopted, Idaho Falls would join Kellogg as the second Idaho city to ban kratom sales. | 2026-05-11 |
| Illinois | Restricted | Kratom is legal in Illinois for individuals 18 and older under the 2014 Kratom Control Act, which permits local governments to regulate sales. Illinois applies KCPA-style rules prohibiting synthetic kratom alkaloids. In the 2025-2026 session, Rep. Marcus C. Evans Jr. introduced HB 4737, the Illinois Kratom Consumer Protection Act, which would repeal the Kratom Control Act, raise the minimum age to 21, ban synthetically derived compounds of Mitragyna speciosa, and impose civil penalties up to $10,000 for repeat violations. HB 4737 remains active in the General Assembly. Several cities continue to enforce local bans. | 2026-05-13 |
| Indiana | Illegal | Kratom has been illegal in Indiana since 2014, making it one of the first states to ban it. Indiana incorrectly categorized kratom as a synthetic drug, scheduling it as a synthetic controlled substance. Advocacy efforts to replace the ban with the KCPA continue: HB 1542, introduced in the 2025 session by Reps. Robert Morris and Shane Lindauer, would have regulated kratom under a KCPA framework but died in the House Committee on Commerce, Small Business, and Economic Development. No kratom legislation was introduced in the 2026 session; advocates are targeting the 2027 session for the next attempt. | 2026-05-13 |
| Iowa | Under Review | Kratom is currently legal in Iowa, but a ban remains pending. House File 2133, which would classify mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine as Schedule I controlled substances, passed the Iowa House 69-26 on March 17, 2026. A failed amendment that would have created a regulated KCPA framework was defeated 44-51. Senate companion SF 2192 was reported out of committee and placed on the Senate calendar under unfinished business on March 19, 2026 (Senate amendment S-5174 filed April 8, 2026), but did not receive a floor vote before the 2026 session adjourned. Both bills carry over and may be taken up in the 2027 session. | 2026-05-13 |
| Kansas | Illegal | On April 10, 2026, Governor Laura Kelly signed HB 2365, adding 7-hydroxymitragynine (7-OH) to Schedule I of the Kansas Uniform Controlled Substances Act. Because 7-OH occurs naturally in all kratom leaf material, the scheduling effectively prohibits all kratom products in Kansas. No carve-out for naturally occurring 7-OH in plain leaf. Ban effective July 1, 2026. No repeal or amendment legislation has been filed as of May 2026. | 2026-05-13 |
| Kentucky | Illegal | Kentucky has banned kratom sales via HB 757, a 380-page omnibus revenue bill into which the ban language was inserted on April 1, 2026. HB 757 became law in early April 2026 after Governor Andy Beshear issued a partial veto (the veto targeted an unrelated statue provision, not the kratom ban). HB 757 repeals Kentucky's 2024 Kratom Consumer Protection Act. Sales become illegal January 1, 2027. Possession by consumers is not criminalized under HB 757. 7-OH was previously scheduled as Schedule I in November 2025. | 2026-05-04 |
| Louisiana | Illegal | Kratom became illegal in Louisiana effective August 1, 2025 via Senate Bill 154 (signed June 2025, authored by Sen. Jay Morris), which classifies mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine as Schedule I controlled substances. Possession of over 14 grams carries up to 5 years in prison. The original ban passed 87-6. A repeal effort, HB 778 (Provides with respect to the possession of Kratom), was introduced in the 2026 regular session and referred to the House Committee on Administration of Criminal Justice on March 9, 2026, but has not advanced to a committee vote. | 2026-03-09 |
| Maine | Legal | Kratom is legal in Maine with no known state-level restrictions. The last significant attempt to schedule mitragynine was a 2017 bill that was amended to remove kratom before passage. No ban or KCPA legislation is active in the 2026 session. | 2026-05-13 |
| Maryland | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Maryland under the Kratom Consumer Protection Act, enacted via HB 1229 in 2024 (became law without the Governor's signature; effective October 1, 2024). The KCPA prohibits sales to individuals under 21 and mandates labeling and purity standards. In the 2026 session, HB 1319 was introduced to amend and strengthen the KCPA; competing restrictive bills HB 1523 and SB 820 (which proposed additional restrictions with a July 2026 effective date) were also filed. None of the 2026 bills have been enacted as of May 2026. | 2026-05-13 |
| Massachusetts | Under Review | Kratom is currently legal in Massachusetts, but ban legislation is pending. Senate Bill S.1558 would ban kratom sales entirely and remains in the Joint Committee on Public Health following a September 10, 2025 hearing; competing House bill H.5127 would keep it legal with strict regulations including 21+ and lab testing. Boston City Council held a regulatory hearing on March 9, 2026 (Docket 0175) and is drafting a possible ordinance. Marlboro is also considering a municipal ban. More than 20 cities and towns have enacted local kratom sales bans. | 2026-05-13 |
| Michigan | Restricted | House Bill 5537 prohibits growing, synthesizing, importing, distributing, and selling kratom statewide, including synthetic 7-OH. Passed the Michigan House on March 18, 2026 and the Michigan Senate on March 24, 2026. First offense up to 90 days jail and $5,000 fine; selling to a minor up to one year and $10,000. Bill is moving to the Governor for signature. | 2026-03-24 |
| Minnesota | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Minnesota. In 2026 Governor Tim Walz signed legislation (SF 3704 / HF 3704 companion) raising the legal purchase and possession age from 18 to 21 and increasing penalties. Selling to a person under 21 is a gross misdemeanor; possession under 21 is a misdemeanor. The new law takes effect August 1, 2026. Separate Schedule II ban bills (HF 3452 / SF 3711) were introduced but did not advance. Existing KCPA-style rules prohibiting synthetic kratom alkaloids remain in place. | 2026-05-08 |
| Mississippi | Restricted | Kratom is legal at the state level in Mississippi, with KCPA-style age restrictions (21+) and a statewide ban on synthetic kratom extracts and high-concentration 7-OH. However, widespread local bans affect large portions of the state. More than 36 Mississippi cities and counties have banned kratom, including Tupelo (banned February 3, 2026) and the City of Union (banned May 5, 2026). | 2026-05-05 |
| Missouri | Legal | Kratom is legal in Missouri. Senate Bill 927, filed December 1, 2025 by Sen. Maggie Nurrenbern, was heard by the Senate Judiciary Committee on January 28, 2026 and remains pending in committee. The bill would set a 21+ age requirement, cap 7-OH at 2 percent of total alkaloid content, ban combustible or vaporized kratom, prohibit child-appealing packaging, and require labeling and behind-the-counter storage. Some counties have discussed local bans. | 2026-01-28 |
| Montana | Legal | Kratom is legal and unregulated in Montana. House Bill 407, which would have created a Kratom Consumer Protection Act, was tabled in the House Appropriations Committee on April 3, 2025 (12-11 vote) and failed on May 20, 2025. No active statewide legislation is currently pending. | 2025-05-20 |
| Nebraska | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Nebraska under the Kratom Consumer Protection Act (LB 230), signed May 15, 2025 and operative January 1, 2026. Requirements: 21+, prohibition on products attractive to children, mandatory labeling, manufacturer certification with the Nebraska Department of Revenue, certificate of analysis showing 7-hydroxymitragynine below 2 percent of alkaloid content, and a $750-per-product registration fee. The Nebraska DOR maintains a public Directory of Certified Kratom Manufacturers (most recently updated April 28, 2026). | 2026-04-28 |
| Nevada | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Nevada under the Kratom Consumer Protection Act (NRS 597.998), in force since 2019. Requirements: 18+, alkaloid content labeling, prohibition on adulterated products, and a ban on synthetic kratom alkaloids. Assembly Bill 322, a 2023 attempt to modernize the framework, was vetoed by Governor Lombardo. No new statewide kratom legislation is pending in 2026. | 2026-05-13 |
| New Hampshire | Restricted | Kratom is legal in New Hampshire for individuals 18 and older. Senate Bill 557, as amended by the Senate, would classify synthetic and semisynthetic kratom as a Class II controlled drug. On May 5, 2026 a House Finance Committee working group voted to further amend SB 557 to target only high-dose products, banning kratom with a dry-weight volume of more than 1,000 parts per million of 7-hydroxymitragynine. Plain leaf would remain legal. A full House vote is pending; Governor Kelly Ayotte has indicated she would sign the amended bill. Kratom is banned locally in Franklin. | 2026-05-07 |
| New Jersey | Under Review | Kratom is currently legal in New Jersey, but restrictive legislation is advancing. Senate Bill S-301 targets 7-OH specifically — passed the Senate Health, Human Services and Senior Citizens Committee 8-0 on March 16, 2026 and is now pending in the Senate Budget and Appropriations Committee with no further action through early May 2026. If enacted, manufacturing or distributing 7-OH of 1 oz or more would be a 2nd degree crime; less than 1 oz would be a 3rd degree crime. Natural leaf may remain legal. A separate KCPA bill, A4222, has also been introduced. | 2026-05-13 |
| New Mexico | Legal | Kratom is legal in New Mexico statewide. No KCPA. NM Department of Environment issued guidance in December 2025 prohibiting kratom as an ingredient in food and beverages. The NM Department of Justice issued a consumer advisory regarding kratom in November 2025. No statewide ban legislation is pending. | 2025-12-15 |
| New York | Restricted | Kratom is legal in New York State with a 21+ age restriction under S4552A/A2340A, plus consumer warning label requirements under S8285/A5852A. Nassau County passed a full ban March 9, 2026 (first NY county-level ban). Washington County has since followed and now prohibits kratom sales and distribution county-wide. Suffolk County I.R. 1279-2026 remains pending — the April 21, 2026 hearing was recessed after 50+ public speakers and no final vote has been taken as of May 13, 2026. | 2026-05-15 |
| North Carolina | Restricted | Kratom is legal in North Carolina for 18+. Statewide age restriction of 18+. No full KCPA. HB 328 (hemp regulation bill amended by Senate to add kratom as Schedule VI) remains stalled after the House voted 95-18 not to concur with the Senate substitute on April 21, 2026. No conference committee has been appointed as of May 13, 2026. | 2026-05-13 |
| North Dakota | Legal | Kratom is legal in North Dakota. The 2025 KCPA push was converted into an interim Legislative Management study under HB 1566 (signed April 28, 2025) rather than immediate regulation. The study covers production, manufacturing, distribution, and retail sale, with a report and proposed legislation due to the 70th Legislative Assembly. A prior ban attempt (HB 1101) failed in early 2025. | 2026-05-13 |
| Ohio | Restricted | Heavily restricted in Ohio. The Ohio Board of Pharmacy consumer and retailer notice issued May 14, 2026 (effective May 19, 2026) under OAC 4729:9-1-01.1 confirms only natural kratom in vegetation form (dried leaf or powdered) may be sold or possessed, and only when it is not marketed as a food, drug, or dietary supplement. Kratom in capsule form, liquid or drink form, gum, tablets, edibles, and all extracts are Schedule I. 7-hydroxymitragynine, mitragynine pseudoindoxyl, dihydro-7-hydroxy mitragynine, and 7-acetoxymitragynine are also Schedule I. Labels and pages for compliant powder may not include dosage instructions, serving sizes, a nutritional/supplement facts panel, brewing instructions, or any representation that it is edible or ingestible. | 2026-05-17 |
| Oklahoma | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Oklahoma. KCPA framework in place, last updated by HB 3574 (2024). Requirements: 18+, alkaloid content labeling, directions for safe use, prohibition on adulterated products, limits on 7-OH to 2% of alkaloid content, vendors must provide lab test results to State Dept of Health on request. No new statewide bills pending as of May 13, 2026. | 2026-05-13 |

The Department of Revenue is continuing to refine kratom registration rules following its comment review. | 2026-05-13 |
| Pennsylvania | Legal | Kratom is legal in Pennsylvania with no statewide age restriction or KCPA in force. Two KCPA-style bills are pending: HB 2058 (Kinkead/Prokopiak) was referred to the House Health Committee on November 19, 2025, and SB 233 is pending in the Senate Health and Human Services Committee. Both would set a 21+ age requirement, registration, labeling, and lab-testing standards. | 2026-05-13 |
| Rhode Island | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Rhode Island under the RI Kratom Act (S0792/HB 5565-A, RI Gen. Laws ch. 21-28.12), signed July 2, 2025, effective April 1, 2026. RI is the first U.S. state to reverse a kratom ban (ban had been in place since 2017). The RIDOH Center for Food Protection is now issuing Distributor, Importer, Manufacturer, and Retailer licenses. Initial license renewals run $2,000 (manufacturer/importer/distributor) and $1,000 (retailer) through Dec 31, 2027. RI Division of Taxation Advisory 2026-10 confirms a 15% wholesale tax. Retail sales restricted to 21+; testing, labeling, and packaging standards apply; online ordering and shipment to RI addresses permitted. | 2026-05-13 |
| South Carolina | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in South Carolina under the KCPA (effective July 2025) — 21+, locked display cases, label standards, synthetic alkaloid limits. Ban bill H 4641 passed the House in late April 2026 and was referred to Senate Medical Affairs. A May 6-7, 2026 subcommittee adopted a semi-synthetic-only amendment, and the full Medical Affairs Committee then tabled the bill until the next session. Companion bills H 4636 and H 4648 remain in the House without movement. KCPA remains in effect. | 2026-05-13 |
| South Dakota | Restricted | Kratom is legal in South Dakota for individuals 21 and older. The state restricts sales to persons under 21 and prohibits synthetic kratom alkaloids. In the 2026 session, two prohibition bills (HB 1151 and SB 77) both failed, leaving the existing regulated framework in place. | 2026-03-15 |
| Tennessee | Illegal | Kratom is banned in Tennessee. HB 1649 / SB 1656 ("Matthew Davenport's Law") passed the Tennessee Senate 23-3 on April 16, 2026 and the House by a similar margin. Governor Bill Lee declined to veto the bill within the 10-day window, and it became law in late April / early May 2026. Effective July 1, 2026, knowingly possessing kratom is a Class A misdemeanor, manufacturing or selling is a Class C felony, with enhancement when minors are involved. The prior Kratom Consumer Protection Act framework is superseded. | 2026-05-07 |
| Texas | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Texas. KCPA passed with strengthened rules. Requirements: 18+, prohibition on adulterated products, 7-OH limits to 2% of alkaloid content, required directions for safe use on labels, prohibition on contaminated products. SB 1868 in the 89th Legislature (2025-2026) would redesignate Chapter 444 as Chapter 445 and expand the regulatory framework for processors and retailers; the bill remains pending. | 2026-05-13 |
| Utah | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Utah under the KCPA, widely considered the model for other states. Requirements: 21+, mandatory third-party lab testing with COA, alkaloid content labeling, prohibition on child-appealing flavors and packaging, child-safe packaging, seller registration. In March 2026 the Legislature passed SB 45 (4th Substitute), tightening rules so that retail kratom is largely limited to plain leaf at licensed outlets; manufacturers have until March 2027 to stop producing non-leaf products. Companion bill SB 48 targets 7-OH and synthetic byproducts with a 0.4% allowable threshold. | 2026-03-04 |
| Vermont | Illegal | Kratom remains banned in Vermont since 2016, with penalties less severe than other prohibition states. In the 2025-2026 session, H.416 and S.121 were introduced to establish a Vermont Kratom Consumer Protection Act and regulate rather than prohibit kratom (18+, COA registration, alkaloid limits); the bills remain pending and the statewide ban is still in effect. | 2026-05-13 |
| Virginia | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Virginia. Protective measures under a KCPA-style framework. Requirements: 21+, mandatory labeling of all ingredients, warning label that the product may be harmful, has not been FDA evaluated, and is not intended to diagnose or treat disease. Applies specifically to Mitragyna speciosa extracts. HB 875 (2026) sought to broaden the definition to cover the leaf itself and create criminal penalties for unregulated sale; the subcommittee tabled the bill on February 2, 2026, leaving the existing framework unchanged. | 2026-02-02 |
| Washington | Legal | Kratom is legal in Washington state with no statewide age limit or registration requirement. In the 2026 session, three state bills (HB 2291 KCPA, SB 6196 95% distributor tax, SB 6287 7-OH cap and 21+ rule) all failed to advance before policy cutoff. In the absence of state regulation, several cities have enacted local sales bans, including Spokane (effective April 8, 2026), Othello (effective May 1, 2026), and Warden (April 2026). | 2026-05-01 |
| West Virginia | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in West Virginia under a regulated framework. Requirements: 21+, possession by minors prohibited, mandatory labeling (ingredients, warnings to keep out of reach of children, consult physician if pregnant or on medication), age-verification for online/remote sellers, state permits required for sellers. On April 1, 2026, the Governor signed SB 985, which strengthens registration and enforcement, requires the Department of Agriculture to notify the Tax Department of violations, clarifies administrative penalties, and mandates a software management system. SB 431 (vape lookalike products) and SB 534 (further KCPA amendments) are pending. | 2026-04-01 |
| Wisconsin | Illegal | Kratom has been banned in Wisconsin since 2014, making it one of the first states to prohibit it. Mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine are classified as Schedule I controlled substances. The AKA continues to advocate for replacing the ban with the KCPA, and follow-on legislation similar to prior Assembly Bill 599 has been discussed for the 2025-2026 session, but no repeal has passed. | 2026-05-13 |
| Wyoming | KCPA Regulated | Kratom is legal in Wyoming. In the 2026 Budget Session, SF 56 passed both chambers (Senate 29-2, House 57-0) and establishes a Kratom Product Regulation framework: 21+ sales, ingredient labeling and warning disclosures, prohibition on adulterated products and synthetic alkaloids including 7-hydroxymitragynine, and compliance authority for the Department of Health and local law enforcement. A competing prohibition bill, HB 185, failed during the same session. | 2026-03-15 |
