Bill Summary

AN ACT ENTITLED An Act to regulate the use of auxiliary containers.

AI Summary

This bill aims to regulate the use of auxiliary containers, which are defined as any bag, can, cup, bottle, package, pouch, or other packaging made of various materials, designed for consuming, transporting, or protecting merchandise, food, or beverages. The bill amends existing laws to preempt any other political subdivisions, such as counties or municipalities, from enacting laws restricting the use of these auxiliary containers, beverage containers, garbage bags, and plastic packaging materials. However, the bill allows political subdivisions to require the use of specially designated garbage bags for identification purposes or to restrict the use of glass bottles and containers in public parks or recreation facilities due to safety concerns.
