U.S. national, state and local laws
The following are some laws and regulations relating to laser pointers. This is not a comprehensive list, and it does not cover all laser-related laws (such as laws in Arizona, Texas, New York and elsewhere for the registration of laser equipment and/or laser show operators).
This list is intended to provide a starting point for additional research, and to illustrate how legislators attempt to define various terms and regulate various actions.
At the bottom of this page is a similar list that was published in early 2015; we present it as a research starting point. Also, this 1999 paper and this 1999 story may have some useful, if dated, information.
Please feel free to email us with any additional laws for this list.
