Both chambers of the California legislature voted in favor of legislation last week that would ban grocery stores and other retailers from giving multiuse plastic bags to customers.

Under the legislation, stores would still be able to offer paper bags or plastic bags that are made of at least 50% post-consumer recycled materials and for a 10-cent fee. In the state Senate, SB 1053 passed 31-7, and AB 2236 passed in the state Assembly 51-7. Now both bills will head to the opposite chamber to be voted on.
