HI HCR110

Request wholesalers and retailers operating in Hawaii to voluntarily refrain from selling, purchasing, and distributing products containing Bisphenol-A (BPA)

Cite expert findings linking BPA to health problems including fetal and infant brain development effects, obesity, thyroid dysfunction, and breast cancer, with heightened risks for babies, toddlers, and children

Reference existing bans on BPA in children's food and beverage containers in Chicago, Minnesota, Connecticut, and Canada as precedent for the voluntary cessation request

Direct the Director of Commerce and Consumer Affairs to disseminate certified copies of the resolution to wholesalers and retailers that distribute BPA-containing products
