I have a report from NIST to IEEE/SCC 14 that discusses this briefly. It says that NIST is still encouraging Alabama and New York to adopt the permissive metric-only labeling provision. Also, that NY is in the long regulatory process of adopting it. Thus, NY at least seems to be moving forward.

What's ironic is that Alabama had been one of the early states to adopt it and then it reverted! Usually that's a sign of an old codger with a lot of influence or a well-funded interest raising dust.

This also makes me wonder if there are any updates to the situation in Alabama and New York regarding the UPLR and permission to use metric-only labeling on the products that it regulates. Anyone have any info on that front?
