Support state bill requiring health warning labels on sugary drinks

Political StatementsGovernance

In Plain English

California Senate Bill 300 would require warning labels on drinks with added sugar and 75+ calories per 12 ounces. The labels would appear on sodas, energy drinks, and sweetened teas sold in stores. If the state passes this law, beverage companies must add warnings about health risks from sugar consumption.
