Bill Summary
An act to repeal Article 2 (commencing with Section 42281.2) of Chapter 5.3 of Part 3 of Division 30 of the Public Resources Code, relating to recycling.
AI Summary
This bill would repeal existing California law that prohibits stores from providing certain types of bags, specifically "precheckout bags" (bags given to customers before they reach the checkout, used to protect items or contain unwrapped food), unless those bags are compostable or made of recycled paper. In essence, this bill would remove the current regulations on the types of bags stores can offer to customers before they are bagged at the checkout.
