California: Out of Kids’ Hands

Legislative Updates

Breaking news: On Thursday, August 13, 2026, AB2030 was passed unanimously in the Senate Appropriations Committee with a 5-0 vote. Next up, full Senate vote this August!

Even with our powerful coalition, this will still be an all hands on deck effort to get AB2030 to Governor Newsom’s desk. Join us in this historic campaign and help finally put in place protections California young people deserve from dangerous over-the-counter diet pills and muscle-building supplements. Contact us at striped@hsph.harvard.edu to get involved!

Big thank you to Asm. Josh Lowenthal, Senate Appropriations Chair Sen. Sabrina Cervantes, legislative champions, STRIPED youth advocates, the Center for Science in the Public Interest, and our many coalition partners in the community for their continued leadership, advocacy, and partnership in advancing this important child health effort.
