Beginning Jan. 3, California cannabis products will be required to have labeling warning consumers that the products could increase their risk of exposure to toxins that cause cancer and birth defects.

The new requirement is mandated by Proposition 65, also known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986. The legislation requires such warnings on consumer products that are known by the state to expose users to carcinogens or toxins that cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.
