If enacted, California Assembly Bill 727 would make the state the first to ban the materials in household and I&I cleaners as well as floor finishes.
September 14, 2023

California lawmakers have advanced a bill to ban PFAS from household and institutional cleaners sold in the state. The bill cleared the legislature and is now headed to Gov. Gavin Newsom’s desk. If enacted, the ban would take effect on January 1, 2026, and make California the first state to ban PFAS from household and institutional cleaners. The bill also sets a January 1, 2028, deadline for banning PFAS from institutional floor finishes and sealers. “It is alarming that these toxic substances contaminate our water,” said Assemblymember Dr. Akilah Weber (La Mesa-San Diego), who authored the bill. “The legislation I've introduced marks a substantial move to mitigate the detrimental impacts of PFAS, safeguarding the well-being of Californians and our environment. It is incumbent upon manufacturers to use PFAS alternatives in their cleaning product formulations.” The Environmental Working Group and the California Association of Sanitation Agencies are sponsoring the legislation. “Consumers should have peace of mind when using everyday household items like cleaning products,” Susan Little, EWG’s senior advocate for California government affairs, said in a statement. “It’s high time we took immediate steps to eliminate these forever chemicals from our cleaners to protect our families, workers and communities,” she added. “We commend the Legislature for their passage of AB 727 and thank Assembly Member Weber for her leadership on this issue,” said Adam Link, executive director of the California Association of Sanitation Agencies. “This important bill will impose a source control policy that will keep PFAS chemicals out of our watersheds. It is critical to continue promoting policies that eliminate these chemicals from entering commerce to protect the environment and keep essential services affordable.” PFAS are sure to be a topic of conversation later this month at the Cleaning Products US Conference, which will be held September 27 and 28 in Washington DC.
