Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 2468 -- Missouri Freedom to Own Lightbulbs Act

Sponsor:  Davis

This bill establishes the Missouri Freedom to Own Lightbulbs Act
which specifies that a lightbulb or lightbulb accessory that is
manufactured in Missouri and remains within the borders of
Missouri is not subject to federal law or regulation, including
registration, under the authority of the United States Congress
to regulate interstate commerce.  This applies to a lightbulb or
lightbulb accessory that is manufactured in Missouri from basic
materials and that can be manufactured without the inclusion of
any significant imported parts.  The authority of the United
States Congress to regulate interstate commerce in basic
materials does not include the authority to regulate lightbulbs
or lightbulb accessories made in Missouri from those materials.

A lightbulb manufactured or sold in Missouri under these
provisions must have the words "Made in Missouri" clearly
stamped.
