What Is Proposition 65?
Proposition 65 empowers Californians to make informed decisions by mandating that businesses disclose potential exposures to potentially hazardous chemicals, such as those found in products purchased, homes or workplaces. This warning system provides an extra layer of protection for the citizens and ultimately their families from carcinogens, birth defects and other reproductive harm-causing agents.
California businesses are prohibited from knowingly discharging significant levels of the listed chemicals as specified in Proposition 65 into sources of drinking water.
In November 1986, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 - otherwise known as Proposition 65 - was passed by California voters in a landslide 63-37 percent majority.
