Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill directs federal health and Treasury officials to create a system that puts one single color on the top or opening of cans and bottles of drinks containing alcohol, THC, intoxicating cannabinoids, kratom-related substances, or other intoxicating substances the officials name. The packaging must also carry a non-color marker, such as text, a symbol, or a tactile feature, for people who are blind or colorblind. Drinks without these substances could not use that color or a similar one at the opening. Manufacturers, distributors, and retailers who do not comply could face civil penalties, and states, local governments, and Tribal governments could not set additional or stricter rules. Rules would be due within 2 years, and the requirements would apply to drinks made or sold starting 4 years after the law is enacted.
