MANNARINO Act

This bill would require states to ban the sale of nitrous oxide products as a condition of receiving federal block grants for community mental health services. States would have to ban all scented or flavored nitrous oxide products. States could exempt unscented, unflavored products sold for medical, veterinary, or dental care, for use as a food propellant in commercial kitchens, for manufacturing or industrial use, or for automotive purposes. If a state does not comply, the federal government would reduce its grant by up to 10 percent. The requirement would start in the third fiscal year after the bill becomes law.
