加州打击伪装成糖果的危险产品：卡痛类制品查扣约1000万美元 非法大麻查获逾14.7亿美元
位于加利福尼亚州萨克拉门托县的州府萨克拉门托，加州州长办公室10月31日发布消息：万圣节之际，州长加文·纽森提醒，危险或非法产品不会因为包装成糖果、彩色饮料或保健补充剂就变得安全或合法。加州正通过协同执法、加强消费者保护与法律行动，持续打击以误导性包装销售的非法大麻产品、致醉大麻产品与危险的卡痛衍生物质。
纽森说：“不法业者可以把非法产品打扮成任何样子，但一个巧妙的标签或糖果色的包装不会让它合法。我们正在严厉打击危害孩子和社区的危险产品。这个万圣节，如果你在违法，就别想藏在服装后面。”
在致醉大麻产品方面，加州紧急法规禁止供人食用的工业大麻食品、饮料与膳食产品每份含有可检出的四氢大麻酚（THC）或其他致醉大麻素，并禁止向21岁以下者销售、每包以五份为限。执法开始以来，加州酒精饮品管制局已走访24,590次、从货架撤下7,403件产品，受访持牌业者合规率达99.36%。纽森2025年签署第8号众议会法案，使致醉大麻产品与大麻适用同一套规则，为执法提供了明确依据。
在卡痛方面，源自卡痛的物质如7-OH、合成化合物如MGM-15与成瘾、过量和死亡有关。加州公共卫生局迄今已查扣或销毁价值约1000万美元的卡痛与7-OH产品，并在零售点与生产设施针对产品和原料执法、对生产商采取法律行动。酒精饮品管制局在卡痛执法中已走访9,209次、撤下8,230件产品，合规率97.97%。
加州公共卫生局局长、州公共卫生官员埃丽卡·潘博士说：“源自卡痛的物质如7-OH、合成化合物如MGM-15与成瘾、过量和死亡有关，消费者不应以为这些产品是阿片类药物或其他药物的安全替代品。我们敦促加州居民保护自己和亲人，避免使用7-OH和卡痛相关产品。”
在非法大麻方面，自纽森2022年设立加州大麻执法联合专责小组、统筹州、地方与联邦机构以来，执法共查获或销毁估值逾14.7亿美元的非法大麻、896,514磅非法大麻，并铲除1,441,826株大麻植株。纽森近日还签署第2249号众议会法案，进一步收紧可能吸引儿童的大麻包装、标签、广告与营销限制，包括卡通形象和模仿儿童产品的包装。
州长办公室表示，参与这项工作的州机构包括大麻管制局、渔猎局、公共卫生局、酒精饮品管制局、税费管理局与州长紧急服务办公室，并与地方和联邦伙伴协作。州府提醒居民：不要凭包装外表判断产品；购买的大麻须来自持牌零售商；致醉产品须远离儿童。

California Cracks Down on Dangerous Products Dressed Up as Candy: About $10 Million in Kratom Products Held, $1.47 Billion in Illicit Cannabis Seized
In Sacramento, the capital city in Sacramento County, California, the Governor's Office said on October 31 that, this Halloween, Governor Gavin Newsom is reminding bad actors that a dangerous or illegal product does not become safe — or legal — just because it is dressed up as candy, a colorful beverage or a wellness supplement. Through coordinated enforcement, stronger consumer protections and legal action, the state is cracking down on illicit products that can be deceptively packaged and marketed to look harmless, including illegal cannabis products, intoxicating hemp products and dangerous kratom-derived substances.
"Bad actors can dress up an illegal product however they want, but a clever label or candy-colored package doesn't make it legal. We're cracking down on dangerous products that put our kids and communities at risk. This Halloween, if you're breaking the law, there is no hiding behind a costume," Governor Newsom said.
On intoxicating hemp, California's emergency regulations prohibit industrial hemp food, beverages and dietary products intended for human consumption from containing detectable THC or other intoxicating cannabinoids per serving; they also prohibit sales to people under 21 and limit packages to five servings. Since enforcement began, the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) has conducted 24,590 visits, removed 7,403 products from shelves and reported a 99.36% compliance rate among licensees. In 2025 the Governor signed Assembly Bill 8, which applies to intoxicating hemp the same rules that apply to cannabis.
On kratom, kratom-derived substances such as 7-OH products and synthetic compounds such as MGM-15 have been associated with addiction, overdose and death. To date, the California Department of Public Health has embargoed or destroyed approximately $10 million worth of kratom and 7-OH products, targeting products and raw materials at retail locations and manufacturing facilities while pursuing legal action against manufacturers. ABC has conducted 9,209 visits, removed 8,230 products and reported a 97.97% compliance rate among the locations it has visited.
"Kratom-derived substances like 7-OH and synthetic compounds like MGM-15 have been associated with addiction, overdose, and death, and consumers should not assume these products are safe alternatives to opioids or other drugs," said Dr. Erica Pan, director of the California Department of Public Health and state public health officer. "We urge Californians to protect yourself and your loved ones by avoiding using 7-OH and kratom-related products."
On illicit cannabis, since the Governor established California's Unified Cannabis Enforcement Task Force in 2022, enforcement has resulted in more than $1.47 billion in estimated illicit cannabis seized or destroyed, 896,514 pounds of illicit cannabis seized or destroyed, and 1,441,826 cannabis plants eradicated. Governor Newsom also recently signed AB 2249 to clarify and strengthen restrictions on cannabis packaging, labeling, advertising and marketing that may appeal to children, including cartoon imagery and packaging that mimics products primarily marketed to kids.
The Governor's Office said state agencies working on the effort include the Department of Cannabis Control, the Department of Fish and Wildlife, the Department of Public Health, the Department of Alcoholic Beverage Control, the Department of Tax and Fee Administration and the Governor's Office of Emergency Services, working with local and federal partners. Californians are reminded not to judge a product by its costume: buy cannabis only from licensed retailers and keep intoxicating products away from children.
