(a) The provisions of this part are severable. If any provision of this part or its application is held invalid, that invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications that can be given effect without the invalid provision or application.

(b) The Legislature finds and declares that this part addresses a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair as that term is used in § 5 of Article XI of the California Constitution. Therefore, this part applies to all cities, including charter cities. This part supersedes and preempts all rules, regulations, codes, ordinances, and other laws adopted by a city, county, city and county, municipality, or local agency regarding the labeling of covered products.
