What is Prop 65?
In November 1986, California voters overwhelmingly approved an initiative to address growing concerns about exposures to toxic chemicals. That initiative became The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, better known by its original name, Proposition 65. This proposition requires California retailers to notify clients that consuming foods or beverages that have been kept or served in leaded crystal products or handling the leaded crystal products will expose you to lead – a chemical known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.
